This year’s full Michelin guide was announced this evening at the Midland Hotel in Manchester.

One Michelin star is awarded to restaurants that "use top quality ingredients, where dishes with distinct flavours are prepared to a consistently high standard".

Going into the evening, four Norfolk restaurants already held one star and each maintained the prestigious accolade as the ceremony drew to a close.
