Australia is on the verge of its first Michelin star, and it won't be in Sydney or Melbourne

Key points

• South Australia's restaurants are being assessed by Michelin Guide inspectors, who dine anonymously across the state. Any restaurant that earns a star would be the first in Australia.
• The South Australian government paid for the guide to come to the state, and the cost remains confidential. Tourism Minister Emily Bourke says the guide will help put the state on the world map.
• Adelaide chef Duncan Welgemoed says it could bring in more bookings, while Professor Catheryn Khoo cautions chefs against focusing too much on the guide.
