"The appealing globetrotting documentary Michelin Stars is much like its subject in that it deals with delicious food (for thought) dazzlingly presented... The top boss of The Michelin Guide is interviewed here, along with several food writers who help determine the number of stars that are assigned for establishments. Most of the chefs find it devastating to lose a star, and feel enormous pressure to maintain top-tier status. Sure to appeal to foodies, this is recommended." Video Librarian
