What were we saying about San Jose’s culinary scene? Oh yeah, we’re crushing it.
This week, the Michelin Guide — a highly-respected series of guides that recognizes restaurants based on outstanding cooking and food quality — released 19 new California eateries as part of its “new discoveries” list.
Who represented the great 408? Two San Jose restaurants, actually:
🍽️ LeYou Ethiopian, 1100 N. First St.
The guide praises LeYou for chef + owner Aide Taye’s unique approach to Ethiopian cuisine — like how its kifto substitutes tuna for beef. Read more about the restaurant in our Ethiopian eateries guide.
🍽️ Petiscos by Adega, 399 S. First St.
This casual spin-off of Adega, one of San Jose’s only restaurants awrded a Michelin star, opened in the fall of 2020 and offers small-plate versions of high-end Portuguese food.
Congratulations to these two local businesses for bringing attention to our fantastic foodie scene.
