In regional milestones, Chiang Mai secured its first-ever MICHELIN-Starred restaurant with Belén by Paulo Airaudo earning a One MICHELIN Star promotion, blending international culinary expertise with northern Lanna heritage and locally sourced regional ingredients.
The expansion of the MICHELIN Guide's footprint across regional Thai provinces illustrates a broader industry shift toward sustainable agriculture, local sourcing, and cultural preservation. By highlighting regional chefs and indigenous ingredients, the guide helps distribute tourism revenue and fosters long-term economic resilience within local communities.
Meanwhile, Phuket recorded its strongest showing to date, led by PRU becoming the first restaurant outside the greater Bangkok region to achieve Two MICHELIN Stars, complemented by new One MICHELIN Star additions Omemo and Jaras.
