CHEF
Orson Hejnowicz, a man-institution, who devoted practically his entire life to gastronomy. His story began 16 years ago in London, developed through many starred restaurants, including two recognized as the best in the world as Noma and Geranium. In recent years, although he was mainly associated with Poznań, he devoted himself to creating new concepts throughout the country. His fullness of taste, expression and unconventional thinking have become part of the canon of the new wave of Polish gastronomy. He doesn’t like fine dining cuisine, because in his opinion the neo-bistro perception of gastronomy meets all the elements that food should provide, i.e.: taste, appearance, and above all, satiation. How does he know so much about Wrocław? – because he already lived here and worked in a 5-star hotel. He comes from the region, hence the wide knowledge and appreciation for the products of Lower Silesia and the Lubusz Land. He returns to develop something new in local gastronomy, the art of hospitality and in his own life.
