The Michelin Germany (Deutschland) Hotel and Restaurant Red Guide celebrates the centenary of the first Michelin travel guide published on Germany. As usual with Michelin Red Guides, top restaurants and hotels are listed with the best-of-the-best rewarded up to three stars. The Germany edition also saw an increase in bib-gourmand restaurants where excellent food is served at more reasonable prices. Germany remains after France the country with the highest number of Michelin three-star restaurant chefs in Europe.
New Star Restaurants in the Germany 2010 Michelin Red Guide
After accusations of “star inflation” in recent years, Michelin has awarded only 24 new stars to restaurants in Germany in the Deutschland Red Guide. Of these, 23 were for new one-star restaurants.
In the Michelin Germany edition, the number of one-star restaurants increased to 198. The “La Vie” in Osnabrück is new in the two-star category of which Germany now has 18 restaurants.
The number of Michelin three-star chefs in Germany remains as before at nine – the same number as Michelin awarded Tokyo and second only to France’s 26. The three-star restaurants are mostly in small, provincial towns and rural locations with none in larger German cities.
Bib-Gourmand Restaurants in the Michelin Germany 2010 Red Guide
As a sign of the difficult economic times, the number of Bib Gourmand restaurants listed in the Michelin Germany Red Guide has increased to 362 establishments. Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurants must offer excellent food at reasonable prices – Michelin currently defines reasonable as below €35 for a three-course meal.
The Michelin Deutschland Hotel- und Restaurantführer lists in total 1,515 restaurants and 4,332 hotels of all price and comfort classes in Germany. The main guide is in German but the introduction and symbol explanations are also available in English, French, and Spanish.
As always, the Michelin Red Guide has short descriptions of hotels and restaurants in addition to detailed contact and price information. Hotel facilities are listed by symbols. Detailed maps of many city centers and how far it is possible to travel from a major city in half an hour or 45 minutes remain very useful even in an age of satellite navigation systems and internet maps.
The Centennial Edition of Michelin Germany 2010 Red Guide
The Michelin Germany Red Guide is advertised as the Deutschland 100 Jahre Jubiläumausgabe (Centennial Edition). The first Michelin Deutschland guide, which had a blue cover, appeared in 1910 – a mere year after the first France edition. 73 establishments listed in the original guide were still listed.
However, annual Germany editions ceased in 1914 (with a special 1915 edition for the French military) and only resumed in 1964. Since then, annual Germany editions have become a very important part of the Michelin Red Guide portfolio.

Berlin, with 12 Michelin stars, has the largest number of top restaurants of any city in Germany. Hamburg follows with 11 stars and Munich with 10. However, for excellent food in Germany, gourmets still prefer to visit the small Black Forrest community of Baiersbronn where three top restaurants sport no less than seven Michelin stars between them.
