Michelin updates Shanghai food guide

Amid widespread speculation, French tire manufacturer Michelin updated its famed food guide for Shanghai on Wednesday.

First launched last September and attacked widely for lacking local flavor, the Shanghai Michelin Guide for 2018 comes out with few surprises or changes.

None of the 26 restaurants that were awarded one to three stars last year lost a star. Four new restaurants were added to the list, all in the one-star category but mostly were upgrades from the guide's less famous recommendation list, the Bib Gourmand.
