Solar Kitchen Restaurant The Solar Kitchen Restaurant is based on a solar kitchen concept where cooking is by pure solar energy. The Solar Kitchen Restaurant rethinks our perception of the kitchen, of cooking, of food, of drink and all of these in relation to nature. The Solar Kitchen Restaurant invites you to relax and enjoy in a new and exciting way. The Solar Kitchen Restaurant aims to follow the sun through Europe, visiting a range of cities where it will present this extraordinary culinary concept. Joining forces to bring this about are world-acclaimed Catalan designer Martí Guixé, Finnish food visionary Antto Melasniemi. The Solar Kitchen Restaurant will be built around a solar kitchen, where the food will be cooked using only alternative energy: the sun. Unlike the traditional way of cooking, solar heat affects the taste and texture of the dish in a surprising and positive way, producing a completely different taste experience. An environmental and gastronomic art project as well as a gourmet eatery, the Solar Kitchen Restaurant highlights key contemporary themes: a nature-driven process, flexibility and immediacy. Depending on the day’s sunshine, the nature-driven kitchen will be able to serve a solar barbecue, meals prepared at lower temperatures or salads. The restaurant will therefore also test people’s flexibility: if it rains, we have to adapt, reschedule and deal with the nature-dependent delays. Immediacy will be evident in the urgency of movements and decisions, and real-time information: a cloud could change the course of a business lunch! |
