🔑🔑🔑The Michelin Key, a new hotel rating system from Michelin, has made its way to the United States after its initial launch in France.

Hotels in certain states, including California, New York, and Florida, were eligible for the distinction, and of the 124 Michelin Key hotels in the U.S., I can offer perks at 98.

Even if a Michelin Key hotel is not part of a larger preferred partner program, I can still book and level up your stay. Michelin is part of Tablet and Fora’s exclusive integration with Tablet unlocks VIP rates and perks at their one-of-a-kind properties worldwide.

Below, I’ve highlighted a few of my favorite Michelin Key hotels — from three-Key stunners to one-Key gems. Following the highlights, I’ve listed all of the hotels included in each Key category (I was spoiled for choice regarding which ones to spotlight!).

When you’re ready to book your Michelin-approved stay, reach out to plan, book, and get the most out of your trip.

Planning a California Road Trip? 🚗🌅

This iconic route along Pacific Highway 1 is the ultimate road trip adventure! Here are some of the must-see stops along the way.

Sometimes a meal is so good that you remember how it tastes long after the last bite. That’s what happened to me after a glorious meal at Chez Panisse on my 50th birthday last year.

This year, I spent time in the Zen Den creating meals that honor the great Alice Waters. See what I made and get the recipe for the best Brussels ever in the latest Food for Thought Newsletter.

My 51st birthday, a toast to Alice Waters, and the best damn Brussels sprouts ever.

Have you ever made fougasse?

I recently learned how to make this traditional French bread so I could bring it to a party for my mom.

Read all about my semi-successful first attempt and get the recipe I used via the link in my bio or below.👇🏼

The path of focaccia from start to finish.

The key to a good charcuterie board is finding a balance between flavors and textures. You’ll want salty, sweet, sour, spice, crunchy, creamy, and al dente.

Here are some suggestions to get you started on creating your own charcuterie masterpiece:

Prosciutto or Jamon (you only need a little - slice them in half so they go farther)
Peppered and Genoasalami
Soppresata
Chorizo
Asiago cheese
Provolone cheese
Manchego cheese
Castlevetrano olives
Kalamata olives
Gherkins
Dried cranberries or cherries
Candied or spiced nuts
Mike’s hot honey
Fig spread
Crackers or breadsticks

While more expensive, you can save time by purchasing sliced meat and cheese packaged together already. Just add a few of your own touches to make it your own.

WHAT BROUGHT YOU JOY IN 2023?

I’m taking an end-of-year survey for my Substack newsletter, Food for Thought, and would love to hear from you.

What was the best thing you watched, ate or drank, advice you received, book you read, play you attended, or product you found?

Was it an event like an engagement or birth, a concert that blew your mind, a heroic act you witnessed, exemplary kindness by someone, a personal accomplishment?

Tell me about your best of 2023 in the comments or via the link below. It’s time to celebrate the good!

I'm capping off the year with a reader poll, an invitation, my Christmas wish list, and some shopping suggestions.

Rather than clog your email with more Holiday Gift Guides, I decided to share My Christmas Wish List instead. This isn't a hint for you to buy me gifts, although I appreciate the sentiment. The purpose of sharing this is to help you find the perfect gift for someone you may know who is a little bit like me.

If that person loves food, likes to bake and cook, enjoys a good cocktail now and then, watches television and listens to music on the daily, reads voraciously, writes occasionally, and identifies as female, then this might help you find the perfect present that they will appreciate.

Last-minute shopping? If you know someone who loves food, listens to music, reads, watches a lot of tv, and identifies as female, then I have the perfect gift suggestions for you!

I’m sharing MY Christmas Wish List so you can see what someone like me really wants this year. This is the easiest last-minute shopping you’ll do. Check it out now 👇🏼

The list that no one asked for but I’m giving you anyway, mine. 🤣 Know someone a little bit like me? They’ll love these gifts.

These are my most coveted products for the holidays.

I’m a new Taylor Swift fan so her Midnights vinyl and the cute embroidered pillow by Furbish are high on the list.

I’d love to make more bread and pasta this year so the pasta machine and bread oven are next.

Span faux leather pants are a game-changer for everybody type. I need these in my closet.

From there, it's a lot of stuff to help me chill. A book, the viral candle warmer lamp, pretzels, and a sphere-shaped ice mold for my bourbon.

Lastly, COSRX Snail Mucin cream for my mature winter skin.
