KITCHEN IMPOSSIBLE
TIM MÄLZER and LUKAS NAGL
"The whole kitchen is smoking - Tim Mäler is finally losing track!"
In the 50th anniversary episode of kitchen impossible, we can see how Tim Mälzer and his challenger this time, Haya Molcho, set each other unsolvable cooking tasks.
Haya sends Tim to the Salzkammergut. Lukas Nagl is famous for his fish dishes, and Haya asked Tim to help him. The “black box” awaits him. The dish sounds like a movie hall, but it is a smoked lake trout.
The Salzkammergut: For Lukas Nagl not only home, but also inspiration. Regional and fresh products get their well-deserved stage in the „Bootshaus“ restaurant and all of them are equally important, whether fish, meat, vegetables or fruit. It is not just about good food. It is about adding value and appreciating the seasons, always with the overriding goal of sustainability. From the farmer, to the supplier, to the chef, to the guest: quality at the „Bootshaus“ does not just begin at the plate.
However, Lukas Nagl is not only inspired by the Salzkammergut. His cuisine combines a cosmopolitan attitude with regionality to create new and unforgettable dishes. He tries to implement international ideas regionally. The best example of this is his own brand LUVI Fermente.
