Dear Friends & Colleagues , This Gourmet Safari has turned out to be a reverberant success and we thank you so much for all your encouraging messages of hope and perseverance. My special thanks to our Ambassador Culinaire, Thomas Buehner, for his kind introduction to the Arzak family, and to Elena for her gracious opening message. Our Chefs Charter member Giorgio Diana’s introductions of some of his distinguished colleagues are also much appreciated.

As I said before, this is not to just construct a book that can be labelled for the market, a book that fits exactly onto a certain gourmet shelf. This is an event to motivate and inspire our colleagues who are so hard hit by the Corona nightmare! And when we re-open again, the process of re-orientation will begin with so many procedures that will not be the same.

And we’ll have to inspire confidence for our guests and for our team members.

At this time, even with the slight deduction of certain restrictions beginning of June, the future looks precarious for our sector. The pandemic will fundamentally change our Hospitality Industry! For many hotels and restaurants, it’s not just a question of when they will be able to open back up—it’s if they even will. Since March, the profitability of hotel rooms has plummeted internationally. For the foreseeable future, you may be having dinner with a waiter wearing gloves, maybe a face mask. Menus must already be disposable, and

half the tables in your restaurants cannot be occupied - or guests will simply no longer appear at all.”

According to those in the know in the hospitality business, like Ian Schrager, who says “In the short run, people are going to be apprehensive, so there will be an emphasis on health and safety precautions, the way restaurants deliver their food, their capacity, whether or not housekeeping goes into your hotel room as much as they did before, and how room service works.”

We are likely to feel the economic impact of the pandemic for years to come, but the luxury hospitality market will endure, like after the past financial crisis. However, we expect that luxury consumers will change their spending behavior, and our industry will have to focus even more on less ‘instagrammable moments’ and much more on experiences tailored specifically to customers’ needs.

So where do we go from here? Will our cherished summer vacations become “staycasions” instead? It is expected that many of our international potential guests will indeed stay in their home countries rather than travel abroad this year and into at least 2021. Will this be an advantage to national restaurants and hotels? The virus has definitely changed the way we live and the way we travel, and the near-term impact is likely to trigger economic recessions around the world. In such a scenario, the short- to medium-term outlook for the tourism industry, as currently configured appears dire and demands an examination of possible, effective solutions. In Europe, we lost at least 2 million hotel nights since January, and airlines have suffered a drastic downturn in activity, fly empty, and as a result, are already putting in place emergency plans to deal with potential bankruptcy.

Hotels and restaurants will open again in many countries in June, getting ready for the summer season. Let’s stay positive and let’s hope the comeback will be faster and have a better impact when it does return!

Stay healthy & cоfident

warm regards

!

Grazie Frank!

The panel of HoteliersGuild is a great opportunity for our hospitality business to reflect on a few “postcorona questions”.

Are we philanthropic? Are we more cautious with things, people and ourselves? Are we measuring time in a new manner? Are we closer to the sense of life?

ElenaArzak Elena Arzak is the 4th generation of her family to run the kitchen at Michelin 3 starred Restaurante Arzak in San Sebastián, Spain. Schooled in the tenets of The New Basque Cuisine Movement championed by her legendary father Chef Juan Mari Arzak and the vanguard of Spanish cuisine which followed in the early part of this century. She has established a method of collaborative creativity with her team which fuels the continuous innovation of Arzak’s Basque, research based, contemporary cuisine.

Elena attended Hotel and Restaurant Management school in Luzern, Switzerland, broadening her culinary knowledge in great European restaurants such as La Maison Troisgros, Pierre Gagnaire, Carré des Feuillants and Le Vivarois in France, Louis XV in Monte Carlo, Le Gavroche in London, Antica Osteria del Ponte in Italy, and El Bulli in Spain among others. She returned to the family restaurant in the 90s, worked her way through all of the stations while creating original dishes along with her father who continually supported and challenged her.

In May 2001, Elena was given the Chef de l’Avenir Award by the International Academy of Gastronomy. In 2010, the Spanish Academy of Gastronomy granted her the National Gastronomy Award. To top it all off, in 2012 she was the recipient of the World’s Best Female Chef Award

by The World´s 50 Best Restaurants . Later she has continued to receive others as the Augie Leadership Awards 2015 by Culinary Institute of America or the Honorary Ambassador Prize of World Tourism Organization UNWTO in May 2018, among others.

Currently, Elena shares the helm at Arzak with her father, Juan Mari. They are co-chefs and collaborators. Their shared history, culinary knowledge, passion and enthusiasm defines the characteristic spirit of their world renowned restaurant.

JanHartwig Jan Hartwig has been Chef de Cuisine of Atelier at Hotel Bayerischer Hof since May 2014. Following his initial culinary training at Dannenfeld, Braunschweig, he passed through further essential career stages working under the tutelage of Christian Jürgens at Kastell, Wernberg-Köblitz and GästeHaus Erfort, Saarbrücken. Between 2007 and 2014 Jan Hartwig worked at Aqua, at the Ritz-Carlton in Wolfsburg, together with Sven Elverfeld (3 Michelin stars and 19,5 Gault Millau points).

“

I’m actually not interested in

any trends and I dо’t waste my

time о assessing if my menu is still up to trend. I have noticed that people are more and more

interested in the origin of the food they’re eating.

ayerischer Hof, Munich, Germany

“

As Chef de Cuisine of Atelier (3 Michelin stars, 19 Gault Millau points, 10 + Gusto pans) the 37-year-old not only sets high standards for himself, but also for his kitchen team. Hartwig’s arrival at Atelier was proceeded by the awarding of his first Michelin star. One year later and after only 18 months, in November 2015, in total at the helm, Hartwig’s greatest success by far, was the allocation of a second Michelin star, 18 Gault Millau points and 10 Gusto pans. In 2017, after not even four years, Jan Hartwig and his team succeeded in achieving the third Michelin star, 10 + Gusto pans and maintaining the 18 Gault Millau points.

Hartwig focuses on regional and seasonal products for his light and creative cuisine. Regionalism and sustainability are important to him in the selection of ingredients. On the proven foundation of haute cuisine, he conjures contemporary and modern creations, but always without unnecessary extras, the recognition of the product is his foremost objective. In addition, the taste and the culinary experience are in the foreground and as Hartwig says: “the guest should have fun during dinner”.

“

Eating does not have to

be pleasing, just like art

and music. Rather, at the pinnacle of art there may also be pr#ocatiо, there may also be

experimentatiо - with impunity.

“

For over 20 years, Thomas Bühner has been at the top of the league of German chefs. Born 1962 in Riesenbeck as the son of a housewife and a commercial clerk, he was first exposed to catering at his grandparents’ establishment. Here, guests were always greeted with a slice of fresh pain gris with butter and Westphalian ham, and the clattering in the kitchen and the hubbub from the pub acted as a backdrop at bedtime, late in the evening. But all the same, young Thomas Bühner had no clear idea for a long time which career to choose once he left school. Whilst his twin brother turned to carpentry, an aptitude test at the job centre came up with concrete ideas: he was facing a choice of becoming a chef, a baker or a farmer. Bühner decided to become a chef, and even back then, he announced to his parents: “So if I’m going to be a chef, then at least I want to be a good one” – and he has kept his word to this day dimensions.

“Eating does not have to be pleasing, just like art and music. Rather, at the pinnacle of art there may also be provocation, there may also be experimentation - with impunity. There must even be them. You have to be able to shoot beyond the goal at times, you have to be able to gather experience. If someone is a good cook, then he should also recognize how he is in the feedback with the guests. And even a journalist must be able to say "That's not quite the way I like it!" Because, if a journalist doesn't like it and he writes about it, it is not possible that the cook falls out of favour for 3 years. He still remains a good cook... We are dealing with people here!”

Thomas is HoteliersGuild’s “AmabassadorCulinaire” and we are honoured that he will instal the all new Chefs Chapter in our private society that will comprise also young and upcoming colleagues, chefs and sommeliers.

Fill the flowers with the ricotta mixture then place them on a baking tray and drizzle them with olive oil. Add a sprig of marjoram and a pinch of salt. Bake for 8 minutes at 170 degrees centigrade.

Cut up and mash the tomatoes to remove the water and the seeds. Place them in a small blender with the Tabasco, the celery and vodka. Add a pinch of salt and the extra virgin olive oil. Blend it and then filter. Pour the thick puree of bloody Mary on the plate and lay the squash blossoms on top with a leaf of celery. Drizzle more olive oil on top to finish.

Cappe"acci INGREDIENTS FOR 2 PEOPLE For the cappellacci: • 200 g egg pasta • 150 g Cinta senese pork • 1 sausage • 2 tablespoons of Par- migiano cheese • 1 egg • nutmeg • 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil • 1 white onion • 1 clove of garlic • 3 sage leaves • ½ glass of white wine • salt and pepper For the sauce: • 3 glasses of red wine • 2 carrots • 1 small potato • 1 white onion • 3 juniper berries • 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil • 1 small piece of dark chocolate • a knob of butter • 3 peppercorns • 1 teaspoon of cocoa nibs • a sprig of thyme • 1 small chili pepper Cut the meat into cubes and place them in a deep skillet with the oil, sliced onion, peeled garlic, the sage and rosemary. Brown it, adding the salt and pepper to taste and the white wine at the very end. Once the wine has evaporated, cover and let it cook for about an hour. Once cooked, blend it all in a mixer and add the egg, the Parmigiano cheese and the nutmeg. Taste for salt. Roll out the dough by hand or run it through the machine so that you have squares that are 5 cm on each side. Spoon the filling onto the dough, and seal the four corners and the sides. Continue until finished with the dough.

Prepare the sauce: clean, wash, and cut the onion, carrot and potato into small pieces.

Put them in a skillet with the extra virgin olive oil and sauté them for five minutes. Add the salt, the chili pepper and the wine. Cook until the vegetables are soft. If necessary add a ladle of water. Blend everything with the chocolate and season to taste.

Cook the cappellacci in a large pot of boiling, salted water for five minutes. While they are cooking, melt the butter and the remaining oil in a new skillet, add the squashed cocoa nibs and the thyme.

Drain the pasta. Put them in the skillet to heat through and absorb the flavors. Add the grated Parmigiano cheese.

Place two tablespoons of wine sauce in each plate. Lay the cappellacci on top.

Garnish with fresh thyme and freshly ground pepper.

Manu | Alameda Dom Pedro | Brazil

The kitchen entered in my life like an overwhelming love.

It is from this place and its connection that I understand how is to live better and, I have strengthened my proud of where I come from and where I live. Looking back I can see that everything makes sense now. I couldn't be in another place other than Manu's kitchen. All my life experience reconnected me with the kitchen which was always present even without realizing it. From my father I ´ve got the farm knowledge, from my mother I´ve got the sea; and from my daughters I´ve got the desire of changing.

For me cooking is an expression of love, knowledge, technique, authenticity and respect. Respect for the product, for the farmer, for the chef, for my apron and my family. My relationship with the vegetables is deep because they are my inspiration. I believe that we can change the diet of a nation by taking small actions which begins on the earth and inside our houses.

I fight for the quality of the food, for the diversity and for the work of our local farmers from our state.

My food is a way of defending my philosophy and a way of telling a story.

Dave’s story is the classic pick-up-and-move dream story.

He started off in his homeland, the Netherlands, cooking classical dishes at several top-notch restaurants and hotels including Michelin-starred Château St. Gerlach in Valkenburg and Chateau Neercanne in Maastricht. That is, until he packed his chef’s whites and hopped on a plane for Malaysia and Borneo. This would mark the start of a globe-trotting career. The Maldives came next: As Executive Chef of Kurumba resort, he oversaw nine restaurants which helped him understand dozens of cuisines. After a stint opening The Residence, he once again packed his suitcases, heading to the Four Seasons in the Seychelles this time, before returning to the Maldives to join the LUX* Resorts & Hotel group as Executive Chef at LUX* South Ari Atoll.

Dave has cooked for the then President of the United States, Georges Bush, the Sultan of Brunei, and was a part of the team that cooked the dinner hosted by the Queen of the Netherlands during the signing ceremony of the Treaty on European Union in Maastricht in 1992. But yet, none of all that prepares you for the challenges that come with cooking on a tiny island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Island living has forced Dave to get creative and become obsessed with innovating, sourcing the highest-quality ingredients and building longstanding relationships with local suppliers.

These days, Dave is living in Mauritius with his wife Julie and their four children, Sophie, Liezl, Riniel and Daniel.

He is kept very busy working as Corporate Chef for The Lux Collective, the hospitality management group that has four distinct brands in its portfolio and properties in Mauritius, the Maldives, and China. Among the numerous projects he is working on, is the incredible SALT Cookbook, which showcases the kaleidoscopic flavours of Mauritius photographed by Micheal Freeman. Dave knows that as long as you cook with your heart and instill love in your cuisine, the dishes will come out great.

“

I’ve never considered myself a star I think we must keep our role [as chefs] in perspective – we bring happiness to some people, but I'm no brain surgeon.

There are also chefs who makes fabulous things every day but who remain in the shadows. This "starification" doesn't really come from chefs – they don't necessarily want to be in the spotlight.

Anne-SophiePic

“

To understand Anne-Sophie Pic’s cuisine, one must understand Anne-Sophie Pic the woman.

She is passionate, sensitive, free and determined. Her path exemplifies a unique strength of character, for as a self-taught woman, much conviction, perseverance and faith were asked of her in order to establish herself in a firmly male-dominated universe.

My father is crazy about rugby and he passed this on to me. During the last world cup I enthusiastically followed the birth of ‘Chabalmania’, brimming with pride for this man from Valence who had attracted great attention all over the world. As a kind of tribute, I had a kitchen overall embroidered with his name and our logo and waited for him to visit so I could present him with it. One day, on the occasion of an unexpected visit, my husband discreetly accompanied him into the kitchen. I hadn’t seen him come in. I was

wondering who that waiter was who had a very imposing physique! It was only when I looked up that I recognised Sébastien Chabal: to my great surprise, our national champion was gearing up to go out into the dining room with a tray…

* Your most amusing kitchen incident?

* What’s your pleasure?

The pleasure of taste is not intellectual People can be deterred by technique, and there must be emotion behind it. I don't want to just do "show-off" cooking, where the pleasure is intellectual. I think that the most important thing is gourmet pleasure.

My proudest achievement is my son. He's my priority in life. Of course, secondly, it's the fact that my career has blossomed, but having a family is something I find extraordinary. An adventure like that turns you into a different person entirely. My son will always be my biggest success.

* Your proudest achievement?

It will always be my biggest regret that I didn't have a chance to work for long with my father I returned home to start training with him a few months before his death.

But I spent my whole childhood in the house with him and there's a form of mimicry that happens between a child and their parents; he taught me a lot in terms of training my palate that will always be an essential part of my knowledge.

*Your biggest regret?

* A source of inspiration?

Nadia Santini has always been a source of inspiration for me The Italian chef [who has won three Michelin stars at Dal Pescatore and was up against Pic for the San Pellegrino award] is 10 or 15 years older than me and I've always held her up as an example, because she's an extraordinary chef as well as being a mother, like myself.

FOOD: “Cooking and eating is my passion. I have been to too many restaurants where food is worshipped and diners whisper.

To me it is more important to cook exciting and inspirational delicious food using the ingredients I love with integrity and perfection.

I am a Greek Austrian and this reflects in my dishes and the spirit of the dining room.”

KonstantinFilippou

In 2016, Konstantin Filippou was awarded “Chef of the Year” for his unusual style and his highly individual variety of ideas. After opening in 2013, his restaurant immediately went from zero to three toques. Even in times like these, today's 5-toque chef is not idle.

Together with the organic meat supplier Porcella, he cooks readyto-eat dishes in a glass and tries out new recipes at home.

WINE: Natural wine: wine as it should be.

An unadorned, multi-faceted and independent character with rough edges.

Lively, attractive, but not superficial.

An honest reflection of pure nature and exceptional terroirs. Man as a caring, sustainable and familiar companion, who does not shy at responsibility and respect.

Influence only in harmony with the dynamics of the big picture. Carefully

and mindfully selected winemakers and winegrowers – many of them friends, who give our work meaningful and hopeful motivation.

Together, we try to give the stage it deserves to untouched, individual nature.

PHILOSPHY “I present an Andalucían cuisine, influenced by my youth in Catalunya. It’s a background that gives me a lot of freedom in the creation of my dishes. Everything starts from the top quality produce we select from our local partners...”

BenitoGómez

Chef Benito Gómez was born and raised in Catalunya, Barcelona, where he also got his education at the renowned Hotel School of Sant Pol de Mar. He moved to Andalucía, where he fell in love with the beautiful produce of the region. Today his project aims to reflect the daily pulse of the producers from the region with great respect for essence and authenticity.

RESTAURANT: Bardal is located in the heart of the town, next to the main tourist attractions. The interior design of the restaurant is somewhat representative of what can be found in Spanish gastronomic restaurants, as it succeeds in combining simplicity, elegance and attractiveness. Warm wood, natural materials and light colour tones create the perfect setting to be fully focused on the dining experience. And that’s not an unnecessary luxury, as the full menu

of Bardal consists of no less than 19 dishes, each and all created and finished off with an extraordinary eye for detail.

* What type of food, which cooking techniques and what influences characterises your dishes?

As our cuisine is rooted in the region, we decided to start our ow n fa r m c a l l e d F i n c a RabadĂĄn, situated about 22 kilometers from here in the town of Serrato. Through this agroecological production, we intend to show the value of our territory, self-supplying of organic flowers, horticultural

olive oil, livestock and hunting production.

It’s equally important to us to present the ingredients in the dishes in a recognizable way.

We show the product like it is and as a reflection of the terroir of the region of Ronda.

So we aim to present pure flavours in a creative, yet natural way.

* Where do you find your inspiration?

We change the menu continuously by gradually introducing new dishes. To be honest, it’s not that difficult for me to get inspired here. New ideas just pop up when I look around and when I think of all the beautiful produce Ronda has to offer. I love cycling and when I’m on the road by bike I like to make a couple of stops to meet local producers or to pick flowers. I try not to get influenced too much by what other people do. My inspiration comes more from the inside out.

*Do you have a signature dish or a favourite dish?

I don’t have a signature dish yet, but that might change.

Today I love to experiment with all kinds of ingredients and cooking techniques from the region. But as a chef I’m continuously developing my cooking and refining my style, so I suppose that can result in a signature dish one day.

* What are you ambitions, goals and dreams now?

We just keep on working really hard day after day, and then we’ll see what happens. Our efforts need to come from within, not from an external motivation like awards or rankings in culinary lists. Of course we’re very happy when we get good reviews, but it’s essential for us that we keep on following our own path. Hard work is the first condition, and then the results will follow automatically we believe.

EXTRAVAGANZAculinaire is an initiative of HoteliersGuild in support of our distressed hospitality industry during those testing times of Corona-19.

Published by CoutureHospitalityConcept this event comes free to all members and nonmembers and I take this opportunity to thank my colleagues from around the globe for their gracious collaboration. My special thanks go to Thomas Buehler, our Ambassador Culinaire, for his collaboration, guidance and the kind recommendations to his good friends, the Arzak family.

As already stated, we are hoteliers, not publishers, but I certainly hope that you’ll enjoy this presentation and please excuse any shortcomings in the professional execution with regard to the art of graphical design - it’s home-office related.

And now, let’s get ready for Vol. III, the special Warm regards and Stay

edition for Pâtissiers.

Healthy & Confident!
