HIROKI YOSHITAKE AT THE CARLTON HOTEL During this year's Gourmet Festival we are delighted to welcome the Japanese master chef Hiroki Yoshitake alongside our Head Chef Gero Porstein at the Romanoff restaurant. Together they will be creating feasts for the eye as well as for the palate. The 35-year old master chef adopts an unconventional style that fascinates the gourmet world. He describes his philosophy as follows: "I follow the seasons and place each product in its original context by combining it with the colours, spices or herbs with which it has a natural, aromatic affinity." Fittingly, he serves his dishes like miniature scenic artworks on specially made pottery. Born in Japan, Hiroki Yoshitake began training at the famous La Rochelle with Hiroyuki Sakai, before his passion for French cuisine
14 12
finally brought him to its country of origin. Formative years followed with Alberto Herraﾌ（z, William Ledeuil and threestar chef Pascal Barbot, who taught him refined simplicity and respect for the original taste. In 2009 Hiroki Yoshitake opened the first of his own restaurants, Hiroki88@Infusion, in Singapore. He then joined forces with 'Sake Samourai' Youlin Ly in 2010 to launch another restaurant, Sola, in Paris. Not many months after its inauguration it was awarded one star by the Michelin Guide. He is currently developing the concept for a Japanese restaurant in New York that will open soon. www.restaurant-sola.com www.stmoritz-gourmetfestival.ch
