Michelin updates land
The Michelin Guide rolled out fresh nods — California added 12 restaurants (Yeobo and Darling among Bay Area entries, with a Menlo Park Korean–Taiwanese spot noted), GB&I inspectors added venues like Poons London and Malverleys, and New Orleans’ Osteria Lupo earned ‘Recommended’ for pasta and wood-fired pizza.

San Francisco’s four newly listed spots run the gamut from a 15-seat live‑fire French counter to experimental Filipino and a Dogpatch tasting room: Dingles Public House, La Cigale, Naides and Wolfsbane appear as “New” on the MICHELIN Guide update. (sfgate.com) Dingles Public House opened in Hayes Valley in November 2025 under husband‑and‑wife operators George and Anissa Dingle and lists 333 Fulton St as its address. (dinglespublichouse.com) La Cigale operates a 15‑seat, all‑inclusive Occitanie tasting concept with a flat‑price menu and a live‑fire hearth, while Naides was launched by Michelin‑trained chef Patrick Gabon with an 11–15‑course tasting menu; Wolfsbane in Dogpatch is led by chef Rupert Blease and offers a multicourse tasting program drawing on Nordic, Japanese and French elements.

(sf.eater.com) (guide.michelin.com) The MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2026 selection, unveiled at a Feb. 9 ceremony in Dublin, issued 22 new ratings overall — 20 new one‑star and two new two‑star awards — and added London entries including Poon’s on its restaurant list. (michelin.com) (guide.michelin.com) Malverleys appears in the GB&I selection as a farm‑based restaurant at Sungrove Farm in East End (RG20 0AF) featuring an on‑site bakery, deli and a dining room that highlights seasonal produce and a wood‑fired oven. (guide.michelin.com) (malverleys.co.uk) Osteria Lupo’s MICHELIN Guide entry highlights house‑made pastas and a tiled wood‑fire oven in its Magazine Street dining room, and the restaurant’s own site lists a menu built around Northern Italian pastas, roasted meats and wood‑fired dishes.
