Thank you to @thebestchefawards …
What an honour to even be in the same room as these chefs, yet alone to be included as one of the Best Chefs in the world.
Absolutely blown away.
I’d like to personally thank @foodrebelx @charmaineramalope and the rest of the team at The Best Chef. My team at @kiru_by_riku @foodwriterdan & @chefgregoireberger for their hospitality, to some of my hero’s for being an inspiration for many years, new friends @supaintsonplates , @bait.maryam and many more.
And a huge thank you to the muse, the most positive, most supportive and most beautiful soul I know, @danideevine , you deserve all the greatness coming your way ♥️🙏🏻
To anyone I missed, we’ll see you in Dubai soon 🤓

For the latest chapter of the Tres is More series, Michael van der Kroft welcomed South African chef Rikkū O’Donnchu to Rotterdam.

The collaboration was not about forcing two culinary identities into the same language. It was about allowing contrast to create its own rhythm balanced by precision, bold flavours carried by the energy of the room and a live DJ set.

A single evening at Tres, impossible to reproduce in quite the same way.

Hier soir, le restaurant Tres à Rotterdam accueillait le chef sud-africain Rikkū O’Donnchu pour une nouvelle édition de la série Tres is More, aux côtés de son chef Michael van der Kroft.

Un dîner à quatre mains, pensé comme la rencontre de deux chefs et de deux univers culinaires. D’un côté, la cuisine précise et instinctive de Michael van der Kroft et de l’autre, l’approche audacieuse de Rikkū O’Donnchu, venu spécialement d’Afrique du Sud pour cette soirée unique. Le menu, construit autour de l’iode a également donné lieu à une collaboration avec la maison de caviar Gourmet Boutique.

Au menu :

• Pancake, crevettes grises
• Chou, calamar
• Coque, hareng
• Churro au caviar
• Gaspacho, couteau
• Crevette, kimchi
• Poire, poivron
• Bar, végétaux marins
• Lotte, groseille à maquereau
• Hamachi, « zolderspek »
• Canard, cassis
• Homard, sabayon
• Caviar, flan
• Sudachi, graines de courge
• Cône glacé au café et Amarula
• Madeleine, miso

Le dîner s’est déroulé au comptoir dans un esprit Omakase, au plus près des gestes des chefs, tandis qu’Emy Koster et son équipe accompagnaient l’expérience en salle. La soirée s’est prolongée au rythme du DJ set de Danielle Grotewold, apportant une dimension festive à cette rencontre.

Mention particulière pour l’accord sans alcool proposé tout au long du repas. Un pairing de haut niveau, construit avec précision pour accompagner chaque plat sans jamais chercher à reproduire les codes du vin. Le restaurant Tres prévoit d’ailleurs de commercialiser prochainement certaines de ses créations sans alcool en bouteilles.

Une soirée singulière avec comme volonté commune de faire dialoguer deux sensibilités culinaires !

Burrata this far south. Atcha this spiced. Pear from the grounds a hundred metres away. Roti where you’d least expect it.

No single origin. No explanation needed.

Burrata — Jalapeño Atcha · Pear · Walnut & Coriander Pesto · Roti
