NORBERT NIEDERKOFLER AS A GUEST IN PRAGUE
07.10.11 |
The Chef of the Restaurant St. Hubertus in Alta Badia and holder of 2 michelin stars performed his art to Czech journalists at Mandarin Oriental Hotel Prague.
Norbert Niederkofler arrived as a representative of the Südtirol, the region with a delicious cuisine based on unique variations of Mediterranean contentment, leisure and the north peculiarity. Opening starters beet root carpaccio with marinated char and “graukäse“ risotto with onion were prepared by presented journalists supervised by Norbert Niederkofler. The main dish, deer filet with green and white celery and “Meraner“ grape emulsion, and dessert were prepared only by the chef and his colleagues.
Norbert was first taught in Germany, then he moved to Switzerland, to the USA, to Austria and then back to Germany, where he was trained by legendary chefs Jörg Müller, Eckart Witzigmann and back in Italy by Nadia Santini. In 1994 Norbert joined eventually the Rosa Alpina, where he started to renew completely the F&B opening in 1996 the St. Hubertus.
Norbert says of himself: "When I was 18 years old I had a great goal in mind: "I want to see the world. And I had a second goal, much more moderate one: "I want to be a chef. With a lot of discipline I was able to combine both my wishes. I experienced ups and downs. My success is the result of clear ideas and goals, and the fact that I always question myself and try to remain humble. Today, I earn my money by doing what I love doing, since my profession is my hobby and my philosophy of life."
