FRESHNESS, FLAME AND THE STARS OF 2027
Sub-Zero & Wolf proudly return as the exclusive event partner of the MICHELIN Guide Manila & Environs | Cebu 2027 in the Kitchen Appliances category, writing the next chapter in the story of Filipino culinary excellence.
The MICHELIN Guide Manila & Environs | Cebu 2027 was held on October 29, 2026 at the Marriott Grand Ballroom in Pasay City, bringing together chefs, restaurateurs, and members of the culinary community for an evening of recognition.
What began last year as a historic first for Philippine dining returns for its second edition as a celebration of the country’s culinary excellence, recognizing a dining scene that continues to push boundaries and raise it’s own standards. This year, Sub-Zero and Wolf marked the occasion with Elements of the Kitchen, a tribute to the freshness and flame behind every exceptional plate, and to the talented chefs whose mastery brings these elements together.
This year's selection features 127 establishments: one restaurant retained Two MICHELIN Stars, nine restaurants received One MICHELIN Star (1 New - Flow), 31 were awarded the Bib Gourmand distinctions (8 New and 2 promoted) and 86 were recognized as MICHELIN Selected restaurants (18 New).

Now in its second year, the partnership between Sub-Zero & Wolf and the MICHELIN Guide is built on a shared passion for craftsmanship, performance and the pursuit of perfection in the culinary arts. Both hold that exceptional cooking begins long before a dish reaches the table. For Sub-Zero, it begins with freshness: ingredients preserved at their peak. For Wolf, it begins with precision: command over every flame, from the gentlest simmer to the most intense sear. Together, they are the elements that bring the art of fine dining into the home.
Bringing this philosophy to life, Sub-Zero & Wolf presented Elements of the Kitchen, an experiential showcase featuring two icons of performance and design: the Sub-Zero PRO Refrigerator and the Wolf Dual Fuel Range.
Located beside the tasting pavilion, the booth welcomed chefs and guests as they went around to try dishes from the MICHELIN-starred chefs. Each signed a fresh orange as a keepsake of the evening. After the ceremony, the signed oranges were showcased in its live Freshness Display in the brands' BGC showroom. While an orange lasts two to three weeks in a typical refrigerator, one kept in a Sub-Zero can stay fresh for up to eight weeks. Chefs and guests were invited to visit the showroom in the coming months to see their signed oranges for themselves.
Together, the signatures form a collection of the people who made the evening memorable, and a lasting reminder of moments worth preserving. More than a celebration of camaraderie and craft, it reflected the shared commitment of Sub-Zero & Wolf and the MICHELIN Guide to inspiring culinary excellence, elevating the art of cooking, and empowering both professional chefs and passionate home cooks to pursue perfection in every creation.
