Stockholm has two new star restaurants according to the french gourmet guide Guide Michelin Main cities of Europe 2008, which means 7 star restaurants in Stockholm. Mathias Dahlgren at Grand Hotel and Leijontornet restaurant in Old Town are the two new restaurants. The Mathias Dahlgren restaurant got recognised as a "rising star" which means that a second star is within reach. Restaurant Edsbacka Krog in the Stockholm area is the only Swedish restaurant with two stars according to Michelin Guide and they are keeping it. Operakällaren, Fredsgatan 12, Lux Stockholm and Esperanto are all keeping their star. Mistral restaurant in Gamla Stan closed in the autumn of 2007 and is therefore not included in the list.  Read also about White Guide awards, Dagens Nyheters gulddrakar
