(Washington) The famous Michelin guide on Wednesday awarded stars to four new restaurants in the American capital, an illustration of the dynamism of the gastronomic scene of the American capital where only one establishment shines in the firmament.

In the prestigious three-star category, the Inn at Little Washington, by American chef Patrick O’Connell, indeed remains alone at the top.
This restaurant, located in the countryside of the state of Virginia, just over an hour from the federal capital, offers haute cuisine made with locally harvested products and prepared according to European influences.
For the two stars are confirmed Minibar of the highly publicized chef José Andrés, Pineapple and Pearls, where officiates Aaron Silverman and Jônt whose brigade is directed by Ryan Ratino.
The four new entrants are each rewarded with a star. They testify to the diversity of tables in Washington, which is part of a small club of American cities to have a dedicated red guide, such as New York, Chicago or San Francisco.
These are Albi, where chef Michael Rafidi offers dishes from the Eastern Mediterranean, Imperfecto: The Chef’s Table by Venezuelan Enrique Limardo, Oyster Oyster, where chef Rob Rubba specializes in vegetarian dishes and Reverie, a fine dining establishment contemporary where Johnny Spero is in the kitchen.
