When you travel to a big city like New York City or Los Angeles, trying out insanely good restaurants is always one of the perks.

(CNN) - Being stripped of a Michelin star can be pretty devastating for a chef, so French restaurateur Marc Veyrat was understandably disappointed when his restaurant lost its three-star status earlier this year. However, the famous chef has decided to fight back by taking legal action against Michelin Guide, claiming the demotion was due to a mix-up over cheese. "We understand the disappointment of Mr Veyrat, whose talent no-one disputes... we will study his requests carefully and respond," the Michelin Guide said in a statement. Earlier this year, Veyrat asked that La Maison des Bois, which is located in the French Alps, be removed from the Michelin Guide entirely due to the reviewer's "incompetence." CNN has contacted Veyrat's legal team and Michelin Guide for further comment.
