We are absolutely thrilled to announce that, for the first time, The MICHELIN Guide Ceremony for Great Britain & Ireland will be presented from Scotland. The home of delicious produce, timeless culinary traditions and warm hospitality, Scotland, and more specifically the buzzing city of Glasgow, is a fitting location to celebrate the incredible gastronomic talent across the UK and the Republic of Ireland.
