Michelin is Coming to Philly!
Culinary Literacy Center at Parkway Central Library
Soon, the first Michelin Guide to include Philadelphia will be released. Many are excited, while others wonder if creativity might get lost along the way.
More than a culinary milestone, this is a conversation about culture, creativity, and how a strong, diverse, and proudly rebellious city like Philadelphia defines excellence on its own terms.
Join the Culinary Literacy Center in the Skyline Room for a lively panel discussion exploring what Michelin’s arrival could mean for Philadelphia’s food scene, the possibilities, the challenges, and everything in between.
