There are 70 of them. Out of 23,650 restaurants in total.

Yes. There are 23+k restaurants, how many of those are "fine-dining"? Put another way, you could go to a different Michelin starred restaurant every week in NYC and still not go through the list...

Also, not all Michelin restaurants are that good... (In NYC, I think they are because it is so competitive but I've been disappointed in SF and Hong Kong for instance).

So FYI - just because a restaurant has a Michelin star, it doesn't mean it is always packed nor good.
