French Chef Marc Veyrat Wants to Give Back Michelin Stars | Eater
"In January 2018 a Laguiole restaurant’s chef was allowed to publicly give back a three-star Michelin rating in what Michelin described as a first-of-its-kind withdrawal; a spokesperson noted the difficulty of keeping a restaurant in the guide that does not wish to be included. That decision ultimately did not prevent Michelin from listing the restaurant in the 2019 guide with two stars, as the company said omitting it would go against the rapport and trust it has built with readers." - Monica Burton
