Cook It Raw partners with the Socialist to showcase new culinary talent in Copenhagen
The renowned chefs gathering will focus on mentorship and food education
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Nov. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Cook It Raw, the globe-trotting chefs event drawing Michelin's top talent, is reactivating with a new purpose – to seek out and promote up-and-coming culinary talents and help them explore the role of gastronomy in our global future. The event-based organization has found a new home at the Socialist, a new boutique hotel nestled in the heart of Copenhagen, where it will launch a Chef-in-Residence program. To mark the occasion, a special dinner will be hosted by the legendary Albert Adrià (el Bulli, Tickets, Enigma) on Thursday November 24th at the hotel's Bobo Food Studio.
The Chef-in-Residence program will bring new and vibrant talent to one of the world's culinary capitals, giving emerging chefs a platform for their creativity and a chance to collaborate with Cook It Raw's Alessandro Porcelli. Every month, Cook It Raw will host dinner events at the Socialist, alternating between new chefs and culinary leaders to showcase their menus to Copenhagen's most discerning diners.
Starting December 1st, applications to the Chef-in-Residence program can be made through the Cook It Raw website, where chefs must submit a concept note on their approach to cuisine as well as answer questions on their role within the industry and what they envision the future of culinary innovation will be.
First to the plate will be Michelin-starred chefs Gal Ben Moshe & Jaqueline Lorenz of Prism, in Berlin. Their cuisine is a contemporary reflection of Levantine food culture using regional, seasonal ingredients. Each dish is enhanced by hand-picked wines and beverages from Levant. Next, Mexican celebrity chef Benito Molina of Manzanilla will bring his Baja freshness, spice and flair to heat up nordic palates in February. Following will be the soulful and sustainable dishes of New York chef and author Will Horowitz of Duck's Eatery and Harry & Ida's.
