Dr. Kyle Hight, a professor at Georgia State’s School of Hospitality, has almost 15 years of experience in the restaurant industry and now as a professor.
Dr. Hight joined WABE’s “All Things Considered” to discuss the value and controversies surrounding the Michelin Guide.
According to Hight, winning a star puts immense stress and pressure on the chefs and owners.
He said the winning restaurants are a good reflection of the city’s diverse cuisine, even though the deciding process is a closely guarded secret.
