Guy Savoy received his third Michelin star in 2002 and has held it continuously since — one of a tiny cohort of chefs whose standing has never slipped over that span. The Monnaie de Paris has maintained a series pairing its institutional identity as France's oldest continuously operating mint with celebrated figures in French gastronomy, and Savoy's inclusion places him alongside that tradition. His restaurant on the Quai de Conti sits, with some irony, inside the mint building itself.
