Michelin published its 2022 guide last week and while no new Bristol restaurants were awarded a star, the three restaurants in the city with pre-existing stars managed to hang on to them.
Bulrush, Casamia and Paco Tapas all breathed a sigh of relief as they discovered Michelin's inspectors still deem them worthy of the coveted accolade. There was also reason to celebrate for Box-E and Root, who both retained their Bib Gourmands - the second highest-honour in the prestigious guide.
Casamia has long been viewed not only as one of Bristol's finest restaurants but one of the finest in the UK. It is often named among the country's best places to eat in renowned guides and at respected awards ceremonies, from Harden's to the National Restaurant Awards.
