I trust Bridgestone Banana Stickers over Michelin Stars, any day.

Is anyone saying they can’t afford a place because they got a star? That would be pretty bold of a star restaurant to suddenly just raise prices.
The argument might be can’t get in because it is booked out though.

All these restaurants are struggling. While I’m sure they will see a bump, I doubt this will fundamentally move the needle long term. A lot of Michelin restaurants go out of business BECAUSE they get a star and everything becomes more challenging.
There needs to be a separate subreddit where people can complain about management and pricing. This one just needs to be informative about how great, good, bad, horrible the food actually is.

I don’t give a shit either way. I don’t eat meat and all these places are heavily meat based, even the so called “green” ones.
I’d like to see the Austin food scene change and actually respect people that are non-meat eaters. Clearly mark your menus, say which items are Vegetarian or Vegan. Put it all on your website, don’t hide it on a secret menu that may or may not be available.
If you travel to west coast cities, this is the norm. Austin is way behind on this.
Remember, if there is a group of people going out to eat, we hold the vegetarian veto.

I’ll probably never go to any outside the BBQ joints, so whatever. I’m not into paying $100 for a meal.

Just wait until “mass deportation” and these places are forced to pay BOH higher hourly rates, then they really gonna boo hoo about higher costs and double their menu prices

What’s the big deal about a star ⭐️
This meme could also apply to Mario Party
I can’t afford Burger King without app rewards
