It's a much bigger deal for top-end restaurants than you might think. (To the detriment of the field, IMO. But I fully admit that is a debatable point.)

- mcv 9y agoBut if he's willing to lose all three of his stars, then surely the possibility of losing only one shouldn't be a big deal? Or does he wants to permanently have three stars without the possibility of losing them?
- Baeocystin 9y agoIn industries like this, intent matters a lot. By stating up front his intent to change, whether he loses a star (or his listing altogether) is moot. Compare to if he lost a star and then said he didn't care anyway. Who would interpret that as anything other than sour grapes?
- chopin 9y agoAgreed. But what does he want then? Keeping the stars without being judged? If he wants to cook his own style (which I can totally understand) he has to put up with it. I am not shielded from my life decisions, either.
