Michelin's Edition On Economic Meals

When many restaurants here in Spain are lowering prices these days due to the ongoing crisis, still making havoc for the majority of people in every section, forcing them to tighten their purse strings, even the 'official' gourmet Bible Michelin had published their 1st edition, years ago, their new guide with the subtitled: 'Buena mesas a menos de €35' (Good food for less than €35), aimed specially at guiding carriers of the most discerned stomachs appreciating only the best food, but now having to watch the spending in time of world economic crises. In Spain, the crisis now is worse than before.

Even though many people might not consider €35 for a restaurant meal exactly economical, but those who are usually guided by Michelin would no doubt appreciate this effort on the part of those restaurants which, at better times, usually charged that much for the starter alone, or the dessert.

This guide listed 400 restaurants in Spain and Portugal, selected by their own inspectors and food critics of Michelin. No competition for the other restaurants I had mentioned in my earlier Blog, but then the customers in these other establishments can't boast afterwards they had been to such and such a place, following the Michelin Guide.
