Hello.

The Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand: Affordable Excellence in Bangkok

The Bib Gourmand designation in the Michelin Guide Bangkok 2018 stands as a crucial category alongside the coveted Michelin Stars. This section highlights restaurants offering delicious cuisine at reasonable prices. The 2018 edition of the Michelin Guide Bangkok features 35 Bib Gourmand restaurants, including 18 street food stalls and 17 established restaurants.

In this interview, Michelin and the Tourism Authority of Thailand invite Dom to discuss the origins of the Bib Gourmand and explore the potential opportunities arising from Bangkok's impressive collection of 35 Bib Gourmand establishments.

Bib Gourmand: A Michelin Guide to Affordable Gastronomy

The Bib Gourmand, established in 1955, recognizes restaurants that offer "good food at reasonable prices." This distinction allows diners to experience high-quality, carefully prepared meals at an accessible cost. Since 1997, the Bib Gourmand has been awarded annually, gaining immense popularity.

The symbol of the Bib Gourmand is Bibendum, the Michelin Man, depicted licking his lips. The price criteria for restaurants vary based on the cost of living in each country. In Bangkok, for example, restaurants receiving this award offer high-quality meals for no more than 1,000 baht (approximately $30 USD). This price includes a three-course meal (appetizer, main course, and dessert) but excludes beverages.

The selection process for the Bib Gourmand is rigorous. All 30 inspectors must unanimously agree on a restaurant's inclusion. If even one inspector disagrees, the restaurant is not awarded the distinction. This ensures that only establishments meeting the highest standards of quality and affordability receive the prestigious Bib Gourmand recognition.

Mr. Sek Sansaranonchai, Managing Director of Siam Michelin Co., Ltd., believes that the Bib Gourmand plays a significant role alongside the Michelin star. The diverse range of restaurants featured in the Bib Gourmand provides both Thai and international diners with an opportunity to experience high-quality dining at an affordable price. This demonstrates that delicious, high-quality food does not always have to be expensive.

Thaneswar Petchsuwan, Deputy Governor for Marketing Communications at the Tourism Authority of Thailand, emphasized that the Bib Gourmand will highlight Bangkok's charm as a city of affordable food and renowned street food, providing opportunities for small, skilled restaurants to gain recognition. This will contribute to further development in the Thai food industry and stimulate the Thai economy. Restaurants awarded Michelin stars and Bib Gourmand will attract tourists and gourmets from around the world to visit Bangkok and experience these culinary delights firsthand.

The Michelin Guide Bangkok 2018 awarded 35 restaurants with the Bib Gourmand distinction, recognizing establishments that offer high-quality cuisine at affordable prices.
