The Michelin Guide is taking a new tack with American restaurants, but is it just diluting their brand? Adrienne and Joe discuss the “recommended” restaurant approach, Michelin plaques with no stars, and why they just don’t get the American Market. In this episode, we also discuss:

• Ruth’s Chris battling it out with Chili’s over dining room dress codes

• Whether or not you should be allowed to wear a hoodie and hat to a steakhouse

• Michelin’s latest ploy to represent southern food in America

• What Joe chose to do with his new Michelin plaque

• Fork It or Forget It: Wonton Lasagna
