Spanish police search for Swiss man on Michelin tour

5 August 2008

MADRID – Spanish police say they’re searching for a Swiss man who went missing while touring the world’s 68 Michelin three-star restaurants.

A spokeswoman says Pascal Henry was last seen 13 June when he left El Bulli restaurant north of Barcelona – the 40th on his list.

The spokeswoman says the 46-year-old Henry wanted to give some business cards to someone at the restaurant and left to get his wallet. He never returned and Spanish police say they have found no trace of the Geneva-born motorcycle courier.

Henry was expected to go to Spain’s Basque region next. The official was speaking Monday on customary condition of anonymity.

Spanish police say Interpol asked them to search after the man’s relatives contacted Swiss police.
