This article is for subscribers only.
Michelin today adds another three new three-star restaurants in western Japan, taking the total for that region to 15 -- and for the country to 29 -- as the French dining guide deepens its love affair with the Asian nation.
Wa Yamamura gains the top accolade in Nara, covered by Michelin for the first time this year, while Fujiya 1935 and Koryu, both in Osaka, are promoted to three stars from two. Seven more establishments gain two stars in the guide to Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe and Nara, Michelin said in an e-mailed release.
