Dishcovery: for the next gastro generation

What does the future of gastronomy taste like?

This question was at the heart of our Dishcovery event on Tuesday, 14 April 2026, to which we recently had the pleasure of welcoming just under 200 young restaurateurs at Rechberger. For one day, everything revolved around new inspiration, practical insights, and open exchange with industry colleagues and strong partners.

Learning, trying, networking

Dishcovery was deliberately conceived as a interactive knowledge and inspiration platform . In practical workshops, participants were able to deepen their know-how, learn new techniques, and experience trends directly from first-hand experience – from product applications to culinary arts and digital topics.

Workshops with Added Value

We would like to express our sincere thanks to our partners, who made a significant contribution to the success of Dishcovery with their expertise and passion:

  • Glass Tasting – Weinturm & Weingut Allram
    An exciting insight into the effect of glass shapes on aroma, taste, and the wine experience.
  • New Areas of Application from Early to Late – Pacojet
    Creative ways to use the Pacojet throughout the day — from breakfast to dessert.
  • Sauces & Textures in Daily Service – Heinzelmann
    Efficient solutions and techniques for consistent quality in the hectic gastronomy everyday routine.
  • Fish Refinement through Dry-Aging – R&S Gourmets
    High-quality fish maturation and how it increases flavor, texture, and value.
  • AI-assisted Food Photography – Rechberger
    How artificial intelligence can be used creatively as a sous chef and how food photography can be improved with small tricks.
  • Mixology – Red Bull & Rauch
    Inspiration for modern drinks, creative mocktails, and new flavor combinations.

Enjoyment & Encounters Away from the Workshops

Even away from the workshop areas, there was a great atmosphere and culinary highlights. On site, our partners treated the guests to:

  • Amann Kaffee – wonderful coffee specialties
  • ItalianFoodGroup – oven-fresh pizzas
  • Resch & Frisch – delicious pastries
  • MemoriesToGo – personal souvenir magnets as mementos of the day

Thank you for a special day

Dishcovery once again showed how important exchange, further education, and personal encounters are for the future of gastronomy. We would like to sincerely thank all partners, contributors, and of course all visitors who filled this day with life, curiosity, and enthusiasm.

We are already looking forward to the next Dishcovery – and to many more shared steps toward the future of gastronomy.
