Düsseldorf, Business, 7 March 2023: Düsseldorf, capital of North Rhine-Westphalia will be the venue for the world's largest wine fair from 19 to 21 March. As it is purely a trade fair, ProWein goes city was conceived by ProWein and Destination Düsseldorf, and will be held parallel to Prowein for the 16th year.

This year, too, the city is expecting a fireworks display of events. In figures, this means 100 tasting events and 52 participating restaurants, hotels, vintners and specialist retailers.

The opening event will take place in the elegant Hotel Kö59 in the middle of Düsseldorf's Königsallee, when ten vintners from 7 nations will present their wines, accompanied by the culinary delights of star chef Björn Freitag. He describes his concept as honest cuisine with dishes: "I attach importance to a cuisine that lasts and that is also allowed to awaken one or two memories of childhood, when we were unspeakably happy about the delicious beef roulades". Accordingly, guests can expect a culinary journey with regional products at the opening event.

Highlights upon highlights

Other participants are Lido Malkasten, Café de Bretagne, Flehe Hof and Lido Hafen. At Anthony Sarong, there will be a "Treasure Hunt in Anthony's Kitchen" to go with the 5-course menu. Former Michelin-starred chef Jörg Wissmann has fulfilled his dream of owning his own restaurant with the new Jae and cooks a fusion of German and Korean cuisine here. On 19 March, he will match his 5-course gourmet menu with champagne from the house of Bruno Paillard, hosted by Alice Paillard herself.

Party until dawn

Falstaff Big Bottle Party at Stahlwerk, Georgian Ovevri Wine Party at Salon des Amateurs or "A taste of Portugal" with Faso music at Cave Taps.

Francesco Cavallo, the well-known Florentine personality and owner of the Hotel Cellai has launched his first literary work, the cookbook „Cucina d‘amore e libertà“. His invitations in Florence are legendary, where he sometimes stands at the cooker himself.

The British rock band Placebo has released a limited vinyl edition "Placebo Paint", designed by the exceptional British artist Stuart Semple. Stuart Semple, also known as the "pigment activist", was the first to raise the issue of the intellectual property of a paint.

His new colour creation "Placebo", a beautifully changing shade of purple, is available to everyone.
