New York City is home to 73 Michelin Star restaurants, with a new batch of awards due this fall. Before the official ceremony on November 7, the world renowned guide has announced a batch of 15 new restaurants that can be up for stars or Bib Gourmand recognition this coming year.

New Michelin Guide additions for New York includes five new Korean restaurants: the modern and artistic Ariari known for dishes like corn crème brûlée mixed with shaved white chocolate; globally influenced Korean restaurant 8282 which serves dishes like crab and perilla oil spaghetti; the upscale Korean restaurant Genesis House; Hand Hospitality’s Seoul Salon in Koreatown; and Meju, a chef’s counter in the back of a banchan shop in Long Island City.
