As a Belgian consultant I've spent a lot of time on business lunches and dinners, all over Europe.
Big orgs always invited me in Michelin star restaurants. Smaller orgs usually invited me to emerging restaurants or well known local places.
If you mostly care about discovering the second kind, I would strongly suggest you to ignore the stars and take a look at Michelin's "bib gourmand rating" [0]: these are restaurants where you don't have as much protocol, food is reasonably priced, and typically places I would go to when I could choose myself...

- ayngg 5y agoI think the bib gourmand is the hidden star of the Michelin guide. It is just good food at a good price and it is much less known so you don't have to deal with the throngs that stars attract. It is more extensive too so there are always options.
- omeze 5y ago+1 to this, if youre visiting paris just follow bib gourmand places and avoid the reservation anxiety. I had the best duck udon Ive ever tasted at Kisin
- locallost 5y agoThanks a lot! It's exactly what I'm always looking for.
- ToJans 5y agoWelcome! Enjoy! I especially recommend asking for the signature local dishes in these kind of places; a lot of pleasant surprises!
