  • Guide Michelin Eating out in Pubs 2013
    INFORMATION PRESSE Boulogne, le 1 er novembre 2012 GUIDE MICHELIN EATING OUT IN PUBS 2013 L’édition 2013 du guide MICHELIN Eating Out in Pubs sera disponible en librairie et en ligne dès le vendredi 2 novembre au prix de 13,99 livres (16,99 euros en Irlande). Cette année, le guide recense plus de 550 pubs, dont 81 nouveaux établissements, situés dans tout le Royaume-Uni, depuis Kylesku en Écosse jusqu'à Perranuthnoe et Southwolt en Angleterre en passant par Cahersiveen en Irlande. Sous la direction de Michael Ellis, Directeur du guide MICHELIN, cette sélection montre que la qualité de la cuisine proposée dans les pubs ne cesse de s’améliorer, et que de plus en plus d'établissements choisissent de servir en priorité des produits régionaux. De nombreux pubs parviennent à relever le défi du rapport qualité-prix : « Les chefs n'hésitent plus à utiliser des pièces moins nobles afin de composer des menus à des prix plus abordables, notamment pour le déjeuner, souligne la rédactrice en chef du guide Rebecca Burr. Ils se montrent aussi plus souples que par le passé et acceptent plus facilement d'échanger les menus du bar et du restaurant. Certains établissements commencent même à proposer des petits-déjeuners, des brunchs et des pauses goûter l’après-midi.» Preuve de l’amélioration permanente de la qualité, deux nouveaux pubs se voient attribuer des étoiles MICHELIN cette année : le Hinds Head de Heston Blumenthal à Bray et le Red Lion Freehouse dirigé par Guy et Britt Manning, à East Chisenbury. Ces récompenses confirment que le Royaume-Uni dispose non seulement d'un solide patrimoine culinaire, mais compte également un grand nombre de chefs très talentueux et créatifs, qu’ils soient aux fourneaux ou propriétaires de pubs.
