For the first time ever Michelin Guide has announced the Great Britain and Ireland 2017 awards at a much anticipated live event in London. They have also taken this occasion to introduce two new special recognition awards, the first for GB & Ireland Michelin Female Chef 2017 which was awarded to Clare Smyth, former Gordon Ramsay protégé and Chef Patron at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay and the second is GB & Ireland Welcome & Service Award 2017 which was awarded to the team at Peels at Hampton Manor.
Michelin Guide have also decided this year to recognise those restaurants of excellence which have experienced a change in leadership over the year with a new category of ‘Restaurants which have retained Michelin Stars with a change of Head Chef’
