Chapter of a single star, the most applauded were Diverxo of Madrid, La Broche and Kabuki Wellington, with its Japanese cuisine has become the first Spanish foreign cuisine restaurant that has received a star.

This year's guide comes with a facsimile edition of the first guide was published in Spain in 1910, that served to help drivers get to know the restaurants obviously had no GPS. She also told Christian Delhaye, president of maps and guides, initially each country had one color - yellow-Spain but, when it began to fill in colors of red decided to put them all. Also in the last edition of the guide I get to 23 countries and sold 1.2 million copies, also the first time Tokyo has more stars in the Guide to Paris, perhaps the explanation is in Japan's capital that has 200,000 restaurnt by 40,000 from the French. Also made clear in the presentation by the Rubiato own election system that is rigorous and serious, and that no stinginess in giving the stars to Spanish restaurants because they are Spanish inspectors who give the stars in Spain.

    Dear Angela,

    We greatly appreciate your feedback and will use it to improve the web possible.

    Providing a website in several languages is costly in time and money we can not afford at the moment.

    According to the translations are a little "Indianness", but the technology is improving slowly and we prefer this option above all, for those who want it have a basis on which to get an idea of the topic.

    In any case, is a topic we will discuss and turn off if others are agreed.

    A greeting and thanks for reading and send us your comments

    I have ventured to give the Italian translation button. While it might serve to get an idea of the subject matter, how the whole machine translation, unfortunately is plagued with bugs. The reason that drives me to leave a comment is that, I suppose, to the authors of this site it is important to reach users of other languages. If this is viable not know, but I think that if there is communication, it must be as clear as possible, since it has added value and help the environment, an electronic journal in this case up to the next level.
    pd i fratelli Viva Rock!
