The hotel hopes to transfer the successful concept used in its High Note SkyBar to create its own fine dining experience. The core idea is using creative pairings of cocktails and meals. The staff responsible for the implementation is Hungarian, including a number with international experience.
âWe are very glad about getting help from one of the best teams in the country, Gerbeaud Gastronomy, to conceive the restaurant concept of Aria Hotel Budapest,â hotel director ZoltĂĄn KecskemĂ©thy said in a press release sent to the Budapest Business Journal. âToday, we have a serious team, and we will continue work on making the hotelâs restaurant a beloved meeting spot of both domestic and international guests.â
The department will be led by Tibor BaĂĄn, who has returned from Thailand, with Csaba PĂĄlfi as his deputy. Olga Katona will serve as assistant food and beverage director. Chef Gergely KövĂ©r and confectioner Zsuzsa SzabĂł will be helped by bar managers PĂ©ter GĂłzon, ambassador of one of Hungaryâs most popular alcohol brands, and RichĂĄrd MihĂĄly, known for his non-alcoholic drink and food pairings in the Michelin Star-winning Costes restaurant.
âThe trade can be taught, but the personality is unique. Style, humility, and the ability to improve are the keys to professional success,â said MihĂĄly.
