High end restaurants such as those found in New York, San Francisco, and Paris are supported by many people who live or visit there willing and able to spend big bucks for their ambiance, drinks, wine and meals properly prepared by trained staff using high quality ingredients. Such restaurants depend upon the patronage of people having sizable expense accounts and/or fat wallets. Their chefs are frequently paid in six figures. Although I have been lucky enough to find some tasty eateries in "middle America" communities, none of them have been Michelin five star rated.
