Star chef comes to Budapest
Posted by Mia Balogh · Apr 13, 2018

Massimo Bottura arrives to our capital city soon.

Brain Bar festival, to be held June 1-2 at the campus of Corvinus University of Budapest, will present a very impressive lineup: among the speakers invited, we can find Sophia, the world’s first robot with a citizenship, Google’s Vice President Jacqueline Fuller, and also a star chef. Massimo Bottura is not only a chef who revolutionized Italian gastronomy, but he is known also for his non-profit organization Food for Soul.

If you remember, you could hear or read in the news that the owner and head chef of Michelin three-star restaurant Osteria Francescana in Modena, Italy, had the idea of opening a very special soup kitchen at Expo Milano 2015. He fed the poor and homeless of Milan with meals prepared from waste food of the Expo. In the next year, he did the same during the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro: he cooked food for the poor from ingredients that would otherwise be thrown out.
