Do Michelin Stars actually matter?

The landscape for the hospitality industry has changed majorly. Restaurants seemingly close down each day, and yet some seem to thrive… So, what sets the successful apart from the rest, is it a Michelin star? To discuss, Andrea is joined by Declan Ryan, former owner of the Arbutus Lodge Hotel, Ireland’s first Michelin Star, Dee Laffan, Food Writer and Host of the ‘Beár Bia’ podcast, James Moore, Executive Chef and co-owner of D’Olier Street Restaurant and Shane Smith from ‘YesChef’ Ireland.
