Michelin likes SF and NYC the same. Sort of.

That puts San Francisco neck-and-neck with New York in per-capita starred restaurants -- about one per 200,000 people.
But NYC has four four-starred restaurants to our one. They are Per Se (yay Thomas Keller), Le Bernardin, Alain Ducasse and Jean-Georges.

Population figures are as of 2000, and I used the population for the areas Michelin actually covers, which in the Bay Area excludes Contra Costa County. In NYC it covers all five boroughs.
Linkage:
- Bay Area population stats (add up county population of Alameda, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Marin, Napa and Sonoma)
- PDF - New York population (all boroughs are included in Michelin survey)
- New York Michelin press release
