In a world of abundance, we need to look at a more nursing future. Sourcing ingredients has become paralysing for our planet. Due to over-fishing and over breeding, there is a big impact on the bee lives that provide us reproduction, which is necessary for our lives. In my dish, I combined sustainable farmed sea bass, free range pork and ecofriendly bee products from our little country. The dish shows how important sustainability is and also how the elements of nature are and can be connected.

My dish is a tribute to the culinary traditions of eastern Poland. I sourced the sturgeon and caviar from the renowned Antonius brand in a neighboring village. The inspiration for the Masurian floral lace in my recipe comes from my grandmother, a talented embroiderer. My dish also features ferments, deeply rooted in Polish tradition. Accompanying beverage is enjoyed in my home on hot days. I aim to showcase the best of Polish cuisine: good products, respect for tradition, and an open-mindedness.

By presenting this dish i would like to convince people that we chefs are not only people that stand for many hours in front of the frying pan. We can all agree that we identify ourselves as artists. Plates for us are like a canvas for a painter. We create and express ourselves on it. Just like Leonardo da Vinci did and others. It’s not only our work but a big passion for life that we want to share with people in the restaurants like artists share their creations in galleries. WE ARE ARTISTS!

I would like to present my version of the most popular dinner in Poland, which is why I called it Sunday dinner at grandma's. When creating Dania, I was guided by Polish and regional traditions. I want to show that our wonderful home cooking, served in a competitive manner, can be very interesting and tasty. When i working in the kitchen, I follow the zero waste principle, which is why my plate includes elements such as potato skin or the inside of a cucumber, and my plates contain meat skin.

My dish is called Friend's Ear. This is a traditional Hungarian dish. The reason, why this dish is close to my heart is because my Grandmother prepared it a lot for me and my siblings when we were young and I loved it back then, too. My Grandmother is unfortunately dement now and I cannot communicate with Her anymore. I feel like this dish makes us connect again.

It has always been impotant to me that we use every part of our ingredients to fight against food waste, that is why is use whole ducks.It significant to me that we also use the techniques of our ancestors for example preserving,foraging.I dedicate the dish to my family and my childhood.I grew up in the countryside where we kept animals. Duck was also an important part of the family meals.The treasures if the forest, the garden the wild plants were always part of our life.

I discovered my passion for food at an early age while watching my mother create meals . Seeing how much enthusiasm you can put in to each dish drew me in. A local favorite is the Octopus. Coming from a small island in the mediterranean reminds me of how grateful we should be for finding fresh local produce. A main ingredient that i kept constantly on my menu. It reminds me of my childhood when my mum used to slow cook it for a Sunday lunch.
