Exquis
Four Hands Experiences
Chef Viki Geunes and his team collaborate with acclaimed international Michelin-starred Chefs and top-tier wineries.
Concept
Under the name ‘Exquis’, the Zilte family presents unique culinary experiences throughout the year, collaborating with both international star chefs and leading wineries.
‘Exquis’ brings together culinary masters and winemakers with our Chef and his team for a series of exclusive events.
Calendar
We are pleased to inform you about the latest Exquis four-hands event, where our very own chef Viki Geunes*** will welcome the exceptionally talented chef Erik Sven Renaa*** from restaurant RE-NAA (Norway).
During a special dinner and lunch service, these two culinary masters will collaborate on an unforgettable eight-course menu with amuses-bouches, perfectly complemented by refined wine pairings. Both chefs will bring their unique, signature styles and innovative techniques to the table.
Chef Erik Sven Renaa, a true pioneer in the Norwegian culinary world, is the driving force behind RE-NAA in Stavanger. His cooking style is deeply rooted in the purity of the local Norwegian terroir but is enriched with subtle worldly and Japanese influences.
In 2024, he received his third Michelin star, making RE-NAA the first restaurant outside of Oslo to achieve this milestone. His dedication to local producers and 100% local sourcing from Rogaland’s seas, fjords, forests, and mountains is clearly visible in his refined and bold dishes. The philosophy of “Perfection simplified” is central to his work.
Dominique Crenn is a renowned French-American chef and restaurateur.
