The Michelin Red Guide, has given with one hand and taken away with the other.

It has conferred its top ranking of three stars on a restaurant in the Aude southern France, removed a third star from another and, as it does each year, reshuffled the fine dining in France.

The Auberge du Vieux Puits in Fontjoncouse in southern France near Narbonne moved from two stars to three in Michelin's 2010 rankings, announced yesterday, with the number of top-ranked eateries in France standing at 26.

One restaurant near the Alpine town of Annecy, La Maison de Marc Veyrat, lost its perch at the top, falling from three stars to two.

Ten restaurants joined the two-star category, making a total of 77 and 47 got one star for a total of 455.
