The Michelin Guide, the world’s most prestigious source of culinary recognition, has selected Las Vegas as the host city for the unveiling of its new Michelin Guide Southwest covering Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.

The awards ceremony recognizing restaurants in the region will be Aug. 26 at the Fontainebleau, the host property. Michelin, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and the Fontainebleau announced the news Tuesday in the Poodle Room, a private lounge atop the hotel-casino.

Michelin inspectors are currently in the field in Vegas. The 2009 cycle marked the last time inspectors visited, awarding Michelin stars to 17 restaurants, including three stars to Joël Robuchon in the MGM Grand, the only Vegas restaurant ever to receive the top Michelin rating.

The return of the guide to Vegas tracks with the city’s emergence, in the past two decades, as “a dining scene worthy of global recognition,” Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the guide, said in a video address at the announcement, which was attended by Michelin and LVCVA officials, executives from the Fontainebleau and other Strip properties, and other invited guests.
