The Michelin Guide’s official announcement for 2020 Bib Gourmand awards went live today.
The Bib Gourmands are announced, yearly, before the announcement of their coveted star rating awards, and are a big deal for those moderately priced restaurants offering exceptional service. Unlike their star-rated awards, which can typically find you dropping a small fortune on a meal, the Bib Gourmand restaurants aim for a light dinner under $40, before tax and tip, before hitting your favorite shows.
We’ve looked at the award winners for this year and compiled a list of the restaurants within a 10-minute walk of your favorite theaters. You can find the full list of the 44 restaurants here. An additional overview of the story, from Anna Spiegel at Washingtonian, who covered the list’s early leak, is available here.
