(MENAFN- AFP) Hungry for a new fine dining frontier, Michelin's fabled guide is rolling into the US capital city for the first time, officials said Tuesday.
Anonymous Michelin inspectors are already out dining their way across Washington, the fourth US city to get its own guide.
The guide goes on sale in October, covering just the federal District of Columbia, for now, and suburbs in later editions.
The tiremaker's guides are written by inspectors who remain anonymous, reserve anonymously and pay for their own meals so they experience dining as any customer would.
"Washington is one of the great cosmopolitan cities in the world, with a unique and storied past that includes, among so many other things, a rich culinary tradition that continues to evolve in exciting new directions," said Michael Ellis, international director of the guides.
Though famous for ranking the best of the best, Michelin's guide also will identify the best meal for under $25.
Washington is the fourth new international guide added this year, along with Seoul, Shanghai and Singapore.
