“Known for its World Heritage Sites and cultural marvels, Nara prefecture is also a hidden gem for gourmets and travelers seeking great culinary experiences. With no fewer than 88 restaurants recommended – of which 24 are MICHELIN Starred – including 16 different types of food or cookery, this year’s edition of the MICHELIN Guide demonstrates once again the quality of the local food scene,” commented Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guide.
