On October 2, the publishers of the Michelin Guide will announce which restaurants made their 2013 guide, revealing which places were promoted, demoted, and removed entirely. The guide always offers a few surprises and head-scratchers, gives chefs another excuse to party, and inevitably leads to a debate about how influential the guide really is in the States.

Today, the folks at Michelin announce the inclusions in the far less exclusive and noteworthy category of Bib Gourmand. These are restaurants that the guide highlights for excellence on a budget (defined as two courses and wine or dessert for $40 a head). This year, the list includes: The Meatball Shop, Calyer, Pok Pok, Salt and Fat, Gran Electrica, and Fatty 'Cue. A few shuttered restaurants also make the list, like Pane Panelle and 'Inoteca Liquori Bar. There are 126 Bib Gourmands, all listed below:
