In a celebration of gastronomic art, creativity, and passion that define the fine dining experience at the highest level, JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel proudly hosted two exceptional culinary evenings with Michelin-starred Chef Theodor Falser, who has held a Michelin star for ten consecutive years.
Held on September 24 and 27, the two events offered guests a culinary experience of pure elegance.
Chef Theodor Falser – a visionary of sustainable gastronomy
Renowned for his “Taste Nature” philosophy, shaped at Johannestube in Alto Adige, South Tyrol, Michelin-starred Chef Theodor Falser—distinguished with a Michelin star for ten consecutive years—is considered a pioneer of sustainable gastronomy in Europe.
Collaborating with local producers and artisans, he creates dishes that preserve the authenticity of ingredients and respect for nature.
His mastery has been recognized with 17 Gault & Millau points and inclusion in La Liste – Top 1000 Restaurants in the World.
More than a chef, Theodor Falser is a storyteller who transforms ingredients into culinary art — an expression of emotion and balance.
A symphony of nature at JW Steakhouse
On September 24, the elegant atmosphere of JW Steakhouse transformed into a true culinary stage. The evening began beneath the impressive dome, where guests were welcomed with champagne, surrounded by understated elegance and refined conversation.
In an open kitchen setting, Michelin-starred Chef Theodor Falser delivered a spectacular live cooking demonstration, preparing dishes before the guests, answering questions, and sharing insights about the inspiration behind each creation. The experience became a lively dialogue between chef and guests — a moment where the art of gastronomy came to life.
Together with Executive Chef Nicolae Lica, Michelin Chef Theodor Falser designed a three-course menu that impressed through balance and intensity.
Dinner began with raw tuna “spaghetti” with fermented teardrop tomato juice and caviar, followed by Wagyu entrecôte with red curry foam and puntarelle, and concluded with a dessert of baked figs, lemon crumble, and amaretto zabaglione — a warm, elegant, and memorable finale.
Authenticity, innovation, and emotion at Cucina – The Italian Kitchen
A few days later, on September 27, the story continued at Cucina – The Italian Kitchen, where Michelin Chef Theodor Falser, together with Chef Francesco Castrovillari, reinterpreted the essence of Italian gastronomy in a contemporary and artistic manner.
