Skift Take

The always highly anticipated list is preceded by weeks of hand-wringing in some of the world's best restaurants and any sneak peek instantly lowers blood pressures or leads to preparation to get a star back the following year.

Michelin’s new star ratings for U.K. restaurants, scheduled to be published next week, have appeared on the company’s website. Alyn Williams at the Westbury, Dabbous, Medlar, Hedone, Launceston Place, St. John Soho, Tom Aikens and Trishna are among London establishments that have been awarded a star, according to the site.
