THE Miele Guide

This is Asia's answer to the Michelin (sort-of, considering ordinary people get to vote, and the the criteria isn't as stringent). And I say, it's about time! Asian cuisine is steadily becoming accepted and even "fashionable" in the West. Europe is not a place everyone can travel to, and even if they could, Michelin-starred restaurants are not exactly cheap, so it excites me that an Asian list is coming out...

For those based in the Philippines, do help put 3 local, outstanding restaurants on the world food map. Just go to www.mieleguide.com to vote! Hubby and I have voted for our favorite restos in the Phillipines, Hong Kong, Thailand, Macau and Indonesia. I'm definitely getting a copy- biased reviews or not, I'm a sucker for any literature that's food-related.

Thanks for post this, ragamuffin girl. Curious. Who did you vote for in the Philippines?

Thanks edamame, I will visit your site now. :) I love Japan and all manner of Japanese food except for the fermented soybean you eat for breakfast. I consider myself adventurous but cannot eat that haha. Do read the following blogs to know more about Filipino food:
