On fine dining
There are apparently 4 restaurants in the UK that have 3 Michelin stars - 2 in London, 2 in Bray.
I dined at one last Friday - Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester. I had the tasting menu, because everything on it looked good and the chances were that I'd not get to try all those dishes any time soon.
Nom nom nom
(I note the Chinese meal we had in Tokyo was at a Michelin starred place. But not a 3-star one.)
(Eep! I've just seen what my meal cost - before wine. It makes the Rockpool look like a cheap eatery.)

I had automatically disregarded San Sebastian. It may be a fine place to dine, but even 25 years or so ago when I stayed there, it was very obviously a city. I can't see it passing the ratio for Yountville.
