Anton Kovalkov, Fahrenheit Head Chef and Russia Expo 2015 Ambassador to visit Russian Pavilion 1819 July
On Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 July, visitors of the Russian Pavilion at Expo Milano 2015 will be able to enjoy a ‘culinary performance’ by the 29 yearold chef of Moscow’s famed Fahrenheit restaurant, Anton Kovalkov. During the Pavilion’s usual sessions of free tastings, starting from 12.30, the chef will cook unique dishes based on cereal grains and kvas, the traditional Russian fermented drink that you can also try at the Water bar of the pavilion. The combination of grains and kvas is a wellmatched pairing, widely used in Russian cuisine. Spelt, barley, and buckwheat are the basis of traditional Russian porridge dishes, and they can be sampled during free tastings in the Pavilion’s Show Kitchen, however, with the addition of Anton Kovalkov’s unique brand of magic, these ingredients take on an unusual and fantastic flavour. Whilst he is visiting Expo Milano 2015, Anton will take part in a special televised cookoff on Italian TV network RAI’s popular culinary programme, The Cooking Show. On the show, on Friday 17 July at 3pm, he will face an Italian chef, and both will cook a special recipe. Anton Kovalkov belongs to a new generation of young, ambitious Russian chefs. They are adventurous, cosmopolitan virtuoso professionals who were able to travel around the world learning and honing their skills in the world’s finest restaurants, taking part in international gastronomic festivals and competitions and at the same time retaining a deep passion for Russian cuisine, and harbouring ambitions to return to work in Russia, creating and developing modern Russian cuisine based on local products. Anton is a strong advocate of the use of Russian ingredients and always looks for new combinations of flavours. Anton worked in many leading restaurants around the globe, including Alinea in Chicago, Eleven Madison Park and Corton in New York, the Atelier Crenn in San Francisco, Frantzen in Stockholm, Chez Dominique in Helsinki and Noma in Copenhagen. At the latter, which has been labelled the best restaurant in the world, Anton Kovalkov was its first Russian member of staff. All through his career, the main thing for Anton was not so much learning new recipes, but finding out new ideas, trends and technologies. In September 2014 Anton became chef of the new restaurant Fahrenheit, part of the Maison Dellos group. His most ambitious goal? To turn the restaurant into an exceptional, creative and bold project, a gastronomic destination; and it can be safely said that he has achieved his goal. Now Fahrenheit is a restaurant of “casual” gastronomy, with a constantly changing daily menu of exciting and pure Russian cuisine, be it a fancy brunch, an exceptional business lunch or dinner.
