On 5th February 2014, the Von Roll Restaurant located on the northern side of Mt. Chopok will host an attempt to break the Slovak sabrage record, i.e. a special technique of opening champagne bottles with a sabre. ”A 9 litre-Bollinger was given to us for this purpose only. Special attention had to be paid to its transport as it was popular even by agent 007 himself. It was taken to Luková with help of a snow groomer on Thursday and stored in a safe place. Everybody can join the attempt to make a new Slovak record on the occasion of the Von Roll Culinary Week and enjoy a unique 7-course menu. It is also the name of the Antinori family which guarantees the highest quality for the culinary week as the history of their prestigious Italian wine production is 600 years long,“ explained Michal Krolák, hotel director of Tatry mountain resorts, a.s.
The a la carte Von Roll restaurant located on Mt. Chopok is proud of an original and stylish interior with major elements of wood and stone and an impressive history of the old cable car that is depicted everywhere. “With the culinary week, we want to bring a special gastronomy experience to the Low Tatras and combine the non-traditional – the French cuisine, Tuscan wines and Slovak mountains. There is no facility in the perimeter of 300 km that would offer such kind of gastronomy experiences. That´s why we want to astonish people with a unique experience in the highest located a la carte restaurant. Good food and top-quality wines – that´s pleasure nobody can take away from you,“ added the chef of Tatra hotels.
Jan Punčochář (34), a reputable and world-famous chef is now working in the La Terroir restaurant in Prague, which has been labelled with BIB Gourmand designations by the respected Michelin guide several times.
