www.fine-dining-guide.com is pleased to announce the continued success of a free iTunes podcast series. This month
has, as you might imagine, a heavy Michelin focus - our latest podcast, available free and exclusively on iTunes, is an
Interview with Derek Bulmer, Editor of Michelin.
You can access the podcast interview by typing "fine dining uk" in the main iTunes Store search box.
You can read the transcript of the previous episode: Michelin, Eating out in Pubs 2009.
We were delighted that three former interviewees of www.fine-dining-guide.com received Michelin star recognition - namely
Michael Wignall (The Latymer), Will Holland (La Becasse) and Glynn Purnell (Purnell's. Jessicas at the time of the
interview).
Bib Gourmand continues to be a success for the site with over 75% of internet searches on the subject (and the vast
majority of correspondence and referrals) accounting for our traffic.
January also saw the AA Restaurant Guide publish their Rosette Update.
Since our last newsletter Michelin have expanded into Hong Kong and Macau and published update editions to Los
Angeles and Las Vegas, San Francisco, New York and Tokyo
The website is enjoying a record month for page views and we anticipate reaching over 25,000 page views for January.
Many thanks for visiting!
We have some exciting features planned for the coming months and look forward to bringing you these in due course.
Until next time, Happy Eating

As you may be aware, the Michelin press release for the 2009 Great Britain and
Ireland "Red" Guide was due to take place on Wednesday 21st January at 0800
via the www.michelin.co.uk website. Unfortunately a leak occured at the
Michelin test site (being 'hacked,' probably some time Friday) forcing Michelin's
hand into publishing the release at around mid-day on Saturday 17th January
2009.
We updated our lists at Midnight Sunday morning to include the full listings of
Michelin GB&I Stars 2009 and Michelin Bib Gourmand Defined and Listing
2009. We have also reproduced a significant part of the Michelin A to Z Press
Kit.
The GB&I and London City Guides from Michelin are both available in the
shops from Friday 23rd January.
