We couldn’t contain our excitement when the prestigious #WorldBank booked a #teambonding session with us as part of their #teamretreat in Munich! A big, big thank you for your trust! 🙏 For those unfamiliar, The World Bank is a global institution based in Washington D.C. dedicated to reducing poverty and supporting sustainable development around the world—an inspiring mission that resonates with people from every corner of the globe. Our dynamic team of three was ready to host their 25 international enthusiastic participants, with Chef Álvaro leading the three-course cooking session with his signature charisma, Wendy Leow-Knorr as lead event manager, and Rowain as an invaluable assistant, ensuring everything ran seamlessly. The energy in the room was electric right from the start! The evening kicked off with a light and elegant welcome salad topped with pumpkin purée and Gorgonzola-stuffed cannelloni. With a set up with smaller stations to maximize hands-on engagement, here’s what was on the fully #vegetarian menu, which was aligned with the high diversity in eating preferences and requirements of the group: Starter: Arancini Siciliani. Participants dove into shaping these beloved Italian stuffed rice balls. Under chef Álvaro’s guidance, they fried them to golden perfection, mastering both technique and taste. Main Course: Italian Stuffed Crespelle took center stage. The chef demonstrated a few variations with different fillings, and the group’s energy soared as some brave participants tested their flipping skills. The stakes were high—could they match Alvaro’s flawless flip? Dessert: The creamiest Vegan Avocado Mousse. The dessert station buzzed with activity as one group puréed creamy avocados, while another melted chocolate over a bain-marie. When the ingredients finally came together, the result was a smooth, decadent mousse that had everyone swooning. Over the course of four hours, the space was filled with joy, #teamwork, and endless #laughter. It was a night of #learning, #bonding, and, of course, indulging in mouthwatering dishes. #joyandmeal #munichstartup #cooking #teambonding

🇬🇧 What do you do? Do you own a restaurant? Every once in a while that question comes up. Makes sense, much of my work is done on behalf of companies and discretion is required. So I don't talk about it too much. But of course I can explain how I work and how we can collaborate My expertise is sustainable gastronomy and hospitality. After training nine month at Le Cordon Bleu Paris, I specialised in vegetarian and plant-based cooking. I learned to cook incredibly delicious food with plants, vegetables, grains, nuts, tubers, fruit and herbs. That is quite a different way of thinking and acting, because the training teaches you to start with animal protein when developing a dish or menu. With my restaurant experience, I easily talk to a chef and the brigade about how they can cook better for the planet. And I can explain the consequences for a kitchen to the managers, because I was one of them for a long time. As a reporter for Food Inspiration and the We're smart green guide by Frank Fol - The Vegetables Chef®, I visit many (inter)national top businesses. Enjoying the spectacular dishes, but even more the conversations behind the scenes. That provides me with knowledge and ideas, I use to work with restaurants, caterers and food producers to make their hospitality and gastronomic offering more sustainable. I do this in different ways: 1. With inspirational tours and talks. Examples from home and abroad, with ways of working and menu choices. 2. Masterclasses and workshops. An insight into the why and how of sustainable gastronomy and what it tastes like. 3. As a nomadic chef, by letting people taste how incredibly delicious plant-forward food is. 4. As a culinary consultant for companies and restaurants that want to work more sustainably and are looking for a shared vision. 5. As a judge for International Taste Institute :-) Are you now curious whether we can make your hospitality and gastronomy more sustainable together? Send me a DM or take a look at my site: https://lnkd.in/dsMB-sAZ #sustainable #circular #inspiration #chefslife #keynote #tours #gastronomy #fun Clockwise, starting top left: Speaker at the Dutch Life Sciences conference, cooking at a company presentation to a retailer, research for a nice piece about Bistro Flores, together with Femke van den Heuvel and inspiration tour criss-crossing Paris.

How better synergy can change the world. I’ve been reflecting on the power of synergy after all the great events and launches we at the Pulse Kitchen have done this year with progressive operators across food service. During these interactions, leaders stressed the importance of working together and creating a better environment in food service for sharing practical actions for reducing carbon and getting more tasty health options on the menus. To make this work, we need to collaborate better. Synergy is the concept that two or more entities' combined value and performance will be greater than the sum of the separate individual parts. It is the belief that a group of people will perform and achieve better results than if each person worked towards the same goal. Synergy, as I’ve come to see it, is a great band jamming, a basketball team in the groove, a restaurant when it’s humming. It’s what happens in great cooking, where the flavour of the finished dish far exceeds what the ingredients alone might seem to add up to. Synergy can lead to the discovery of new ideas and innovative solutions as diverse perspectives come together to achieve a common goal. Thus, the power of synergy lies in its ability to bring together different skills, experiences, and ideas to create something greater than any individual could achieve alone. It's been a great pleasure to create synergy alongside progressive operators this year to make PLANTS and PULSES the first choice on the menu. Together, we create much more than we could ever do on our own. ❓How are you using synergy to transition to offering more delicious and tasty plant-led meals on your menu? At the Pulse Kitchen, we are over the moon to work alongside Leo Rodley, Paul Rodgers, Hannah-Elise Parsons, Jonathan Hitching, edward morgan, Jamie Southgate, John Griffiths, James Yates, Daniel Corlett, Simon Price, Peter Lambie, Rie Kattrup Lorentzen, Ali Honour, Patrick McDermott, Adrian Byrne and the team at Real Zero to make positive change happen through menus. #Synergy #leadingwithplants #foodservice #food #beans ______________________________ ♻️ Repost if this helped or inspired. 🙋♂️ Great to meet you I’m Michael. 💥 I believe in business as a force for good. 🎧 Listen to The Hospitality Mavericks Podcast Show on your favourite podcast channel. 🫘 Eat more plants and beans to improve your and the planet's health - visit www.Pulse.Kitchen to get PULSE POWERED.

Once upon a time, in the culinary cosmos of ambition and soy sauce, emerged Jennifer Liao, standing tall as a mochi-building warrior in the kingdom of MìLà. She was determined to sprinkle some modern pixie dust on traditional Chinese cuisine, transforming fortune cookies into tales worth telling. Imagine starting a food business as whipping up a celestial cocktail—equal parts vision, determination, and tiny umbrella for flair. But hey, someone had to turn the stereotypical takeout into gourmet galas, right? - Flip the Script: Jennifer mixed fine slices of Peking duck with a drizzle of narrative sauce. Her mission? Redefining the labyrinthine alleyways of dim sum to interactive highways of gastronomy. - Hungry for Stories: Ever been mesmerized by that stellar Netflix series right before realizing your noodles went soggy in awe? That's the Liao Effect! Storytelling, it seems, is a marketing Kung Fu move with zen-like mastery. Yet, let’s worry not about simple stir-fry aspirations. Instead, let's flambé for the future. Picture this: as our taste buds experience a renaissance, the MìLà mantra trickles down like sweet hoisin rain, forever changing the feast and festivity panorama beyond just gastronomic borders. Glance back decades from now, and Jennifer’s stride could inspire legions, like culinary diplomats solving World Peace over char siu bao—table mats gone diplomatic treaties. Life in the world of potstickers is almost appetizer big because only one universal truth awaits: - Economics over Egg Rolls: In an era where macroeconomic fate intertwines with kitchen toasts, those skilled in blending mouthwatering meals with a chronicle spin might edge competitive skillet. Value? There’s more in egg drop economics than in a fiscal chop suey chart. Predict a juicy conglomeration of tech-magic garnishing recipes and sentiments up next on your cue-the-senses heritage cooking show-turned-movement. Through Jennifer’s lens, the heroic harmony in culinary innovation smashes cultural glass ceilings with boldspice courage. She diced open ginger-flavored Pandora’s box, and what tumbled were volumes of wistful ingenuity ready to bubble up everywhere any aromatic broth called community. #ModernCuisine #FoodStorytelling #JenniferLiao #MìLà #InnovationFeast #CulinaryRevolution #Foodpreneur https://lnkd.in/emdgfXDV
