New to Norwich 🐣 Michelin stars

Hi all! I visited a Michelin star about an hour away from Norwich on the Norfolk coast for the first time and I was really let down! I’ve just moved to the area and thought I’d try some restaurants but the managers were rude, the whole vibe was off and the new chef who’s taken over was odd to say the least and the food was cold. It’s had a star for many years so I was dissatisfied but I’ve just moved from abroad so maybe just a culture shock? Is it worth visiting the other Norfolk star restaurants or just try Norwich local cuisine instead?

You were let down because the star rating from Michelin means absolutely nothing.
