Some other notables

Makimura was promoted from 2 to 3 stars.

Harutaka, one of my favorite sushi restaurants, was promoted from 1 to 2 stars.

L’Effervescence was promoted from 1 to 2 stars.

L’Osier, closed for 2 1/2 years, has come back with 2 stars.

Tapas Molecular Bar at the Mandarin Oriental is new with 1 star.

There are lots of new entries in the great value restaurants, too many to even comment on.
