Of these, 12 have been given the coveted three-star distinction, including two new restaurants: IIDA in Kyoto who moved up from two-stars last year, and French gastronomy restaurant Hajime in Osaka.
The MICHELIN guide Kyoto Osaka also comprises a total of 40 two-star restaurants and 139 one-star restaurants.
The 2018 edition sees 25 new one-star additions: 12 in Kyoto and 13 in Osaka including the likes of Chinese restaurant Chugokusai S.Sawada, beef specialty establishment Nikunotakumi Miyoshi, and Sushi Kappo Nakaichi.
Michael Ellis, International Director of the MICHELIN Guides said: “The elegant, ancient city of Kyoto and the vibrant food city Osaka have different charms but both attract a lot of foreign tourists. I know these cities are also close to Japanese hearts. I am delighted to share with our clients the discoveries that our inspectors have made”.
