Are you a foodie?


If so, you’re in luck as a North Yorkshire restaurant - around a half hour’s drive from Teesside - has been given one of the highest culinary honours.


The Star Inn, in Harome, near Helmsley, is one of the latest places to be given a Michelin star and to be included within the Michelin Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2015 which is released today.


There are only 14 new entries into the guide, making the honour all the more special.


“The 14 new stars in our 2015 guide highlight the enormous richness and variety of the UK’s


restaurant scene.


“They range from country pubs to hipster hangouts, from counter-restaurants to classic dining rooms,” said Rebecca Burr, editor of the Michelin guide.


Taken over in 1996 by Andrew Pern, the restaurant has since won several awards for Andrew’s ‘modern Yorkshire’ cooking, including a Michelin star from 2002 to 2010.


Pern, has also appeared on BBC2’s Great British Menu programme.


Other restaurants boasting a Michelin star near our area is the Raby Hunt, in Summerhouse, near Darlington, which has maintained its star.
