A Taste of Austria – Vorarlberg Comes to Zurich
A Taste of Austria – Vorarlberg Comes to Zurich
Culinary arts - When Michael Garcia-Lopez cooks at the Krone in Hittisau (Vorarlberg, Austria), alpine roots meet modern clarity. Completely unplugged, he serves what the region has to offer – with a deep commitment to sustainability. Vegetables from the village, whole-animal butchery, and flavors straight from the Bregenzerwald. At his table, you don’t just taste the ingredients – you taste the philosophy behind them.
In early May, Michael Garcia-Lopez will be visiting Zurich’s historic Old Town to join culinary forces with Rechberg 1837 for a special four-hands dinner. Three of the courses will be created by Carlos Navarro, the founder of Rechberg and a pioneer of sustainable cuisine in Zurich. What unites these two chefs is their uncompromising focus on quality, provenance, and the future of food. Together, they will craft a menu that not only nourishes but inspires.

This pan-Alpine culinary experience will be complemented by rich insights into the food culture of Vorarlberg – featuring stories of craftsmanship, origin, and flavor. Here, food is not just served – it is celebrated.

AKKU Quintet - Hypnotisch, rhythmisch, visionär
AKKU Quintet - Hypnotisch, rhythmisch, visionär
Jazz - Das Berner AKKU Quintet entfaltet einen Sound zwischen Minimal Jazz, Postrock und elektronischen Texturen – repetitiv und treibend, dabei stets offen für neue klangliche Tiefen. Unter der Leitung von Schlagzeuger und Komponist Manuel Pasquinelli wird Repetition zum dramaturgischen Element, das Zeit und Raum verschiebt. Das fünfte Studioalbum Kinema lotet diese Ästhetik noch weiter aus: vielschichtig, intensiv und voller innerer Bewegung.
Live verschmelzen Musik und Visuals zu einem immersiven Erlebnis, das Klangräume erweitert und Zuhörende in cineastische Klanglandschaften eintauchen lässt. Internationale Tourneen, fünf Alben und der Kantonale Berner Musikpreis 2020 bestätigen: Dieses Quintett gehört zu den visionärsten Stimmen der experimentellen Jazzszene.

Honestly, we think mums deserve to be celebrated every day (if you ask us) – but we’ve got the place and the food to make her so happy, she’ll happily overlook the other 364 days of the year.
It all kicks off at 10 AM, and we’ll be brunching in a relaxed atmosphere until 3 PM.
And of course, Mum gets a glass of bubbles – anything else would be rude.
We’re looking forward to seeing you!
