Idrija, Slovenia
Jožef
Jožef holds back-to-back Michelin Bib Gourmands (2024 and 2025) in Idrija, a small Slovenian town better known for mercury mining and lace than for its dining scene.

At the €€ price point, it represents a serious argument for Idrija as a destination in its own right.

Juan Mari
A Michelin Bib Gourmand holder for 2024 and 2025, Juan Mari sits at the centre of San Pedro del Pinatar with a dining room that channels the Mar Menor coast through locally sourced rice dishes, artichoke carpaccio with crispy Iberian ham, and turbot with patatas a lo pobre.

Benifaió, Spain
Juan Veintitrés
A three-brother family operation in Benifaió's Horta Sud that evolved from a neighbourhood bar into a serious regional table.

Jun Hom
A Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient in both 2024 and 2025, Jun Hom sits on Mae Nam beach and serves direct southern Thai seafood at prices that rarely push past a few hundred baht per dish.

Jungin Myeonok
A Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient in both 2024 and 2025, Jungin Myeonok has earned sustained critical recognition for its naengmyeon in Yeongdeungpo, a district that sits outside Seoul's more trafficked dining corridors. The price point stays firmly in the ₩ tier.

A Michelin Bib Gourmand soba specialist in Kyoto's Jodoji district, Juu-go operates on an unusually austere premise: a menu built entirely around buckwheat, from grain to bowl.

Hangzhou, China
King's Choice (Huyu Road)
King's Choice on Huyu Road holds consecutive Michelin Bib Gourmand awards for 2024 and 2025, placing it among Hangzhou's most recognised addresses for honest Hang Zhou cooking at a mid-range price point. The ¥¥ positioning makes it one of the few Michelin-recognised options in the city where the bill stays accessible without conceding ground on technique or local ingredient sourcing.

Rust, Austria
Kirchenwirt
On Rust's cobblestoned main square, Kirchenwirt occupies the kind of inn that Austrian market towns used to anchor their civic life around. The handwritten menu runs to Tafelspitz, goulash, and apricot dumplings, executed with the craft standards you'd expect from a kitchen overseen by a Steirereck alumnus. In a town otherwise trending toward high-concept dining, this is the place that keeps its feet on the ground.

KOBUSHI Ramen
A Michelin Bib Gourmand ramen shop in Kyoto's Shimogyo Ward, KOBUSHI sits at the accessible end of a city more associated with kaiseki formality than casual bowls. For ramen at the ¥ price point with guide recognition behind it, KOBUSHI is a reliable reference point.

KORISU
A three-table yoshoku spot in Higashiyama Ward where a mother and her two daughters serve French-inflected Western classics in white smocks, the portions generous and the prices mid-range. Hamburger steak, fried shrimp, escargot, and lamb appear on a menu that reads like a love letter to postwar Japanese comfort food. Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition in both 2024 and 2025 has made reservations harder to secure than the modest setting might suggest.
