Latest Michelin Guide Shows 35 Michelin Starred Restaurants In Savoie Mont Blanc

The 2020 Michelin guide came out last week, and once again, showed that Savoie Mont Blanc is an exceptional gastronomic destination, with 35 Michelin-starred restaurants and a total of 54 stars, including 4 new stars.

• New for this year, the Michelin guide has also awarded the most ecological chefs. Five chefs in Savoie Mont Blanc have received a Green Star.
  
  Le Sarkara, the restaurant of the K2 Palace in Courchevel, is a unique gourmet dessert restaurant. The pastry chef Sébastien Vauxion was awarded a second star for his incredible patisseries. He is the first starred pastry chef in the world.
  
  Chef Anthony Bisquerra also received a second star for La Table de l’Alpaga in Megève.
• François Moureaux, the chef of the Azimut restaurant in Courchevel-Le Praz lost his star last year but got it back in 2020.
• 
  Auberge de Montmin, located in Talloires-Montmin near Lake Annecy, was awarded a first star, only six months after opening. Chef Florian Favario, who worked with Laurent Petit, Thierry Marx and Eric Fréchon, makes delicious and generous dishes with local produce, including vegetables and herbs from his own kitchen garden. Auberge de Montmin can seat 25 guests maximum

Proud of their territory, the Savoie Mont Blanc’s chefs use the best produce sourced locally. Many grow vegetables and herbs.  For the first time, the Michelin guide has awarded Green Stars to chefs who take an extra step to be sustainable and ecological.
