"The drinks spotlight lands on Chompon "Boong" Boonnak of Mahaniyom (236 Washington Street, Brookline), who received Michelin's Exceptional Cocktails Award. In the guide, Mahaniyom is also listed as a Bib Gourmand, making it Boston's first Michelin-recognized bar and value pick in one location. The Brookline Village restaurant opened in 2020 with hard-to-find dishes like its pomelo salad, the nom prik patter, crab curry, and variations on larb. Boonnak's drinks are built to pair with small plates. Boonnak landed at Mahaniyom from Boston's Shojo."
"The first Michelin star for Boston goes to Japanese restaurant, 311 Omakase (605 Tremont Street, South End). Wei Fa Chen, a Masa alum, leads the 10-seat counter and runs an 18-course, roughly $250 Edomae-style menu. Hidden in a brownstone basement, 311 opened in 2023 and became one of the city's hardest reservations; Michelin describes the omakase as "impressive nigiri showcasing high-quality product.""
