Vegan interpretations of traditional dishes will become part of our food culture in the future. This is the conclusion of trend researcher Hanni Rützler. In addition to new high-tech imitations of meat and fish, meat-free adaptations of classic dishes that do not require complicated lists of ingredients are also shining. The still popular bowls, for example, can be perfectly “veganized” – whether sweet or savoury, breakfast or lunch snack.

Healthy snacking

Now possible without animal ingredients: vegetables, fruit or salad, nuts or seeds are perfect for a quick snack. Then there are filling foods such as quinoa, couscous or bulgur, which offer plenty of scope. And then we mustn't forget the so-called superfoods: Avocado, pomegranate or chia seeds, for example, are very popular with health-conscious gourmets. The regional alternatives are beet, linseed or kale. With imagination and creativity, delicious plant-based alternatives can be created - in the form of healthy snacks, sophisticated variety or favorite childhood memories.

The diverse future of meat consumption

Meat is losing its role as the leading product of our food culture - at least in the visions of innovative food technologists and investors as well as in the vegan discourse on “proper” nutrition. Plant-based food has become one of the most important food trends of our time. In addition to plant-based products, other alternatives such as alt-protein and cell-cultured food, which are becoming increasingly similar to meat and fish in terms of taste and texture, are now on the horizon.

Horváth Pop-up Vienna 2026

Emancipated vegetable cuisine meets fine dining – Sebastian Frank brings his radical concept back to Austria

The two-star Berlin restaurant Horváth returns to Vienna in early 2026 with an exclusive pop-up, presenting an uncompromising new menu based on “emancipated vegetable cuisine.” For two weeks, Sebastian and Jeannine Frank’s team will take over the Herzig restaurant and serve a 7-course menu that shows how innovative, precise, and luxurious vegetables can be today. A culinary highlight for foodies, fine dining fans, and anyone who doesn’t want to miss Austria’s most exciting pop-up experience of 2026.

This time, Sebastian Frank is taking an even more uncompromising approach, with a new menu and a clear message: vegetables can be luxurious – even without caviar.

Experiential dining redefined

Why formats such as PALAZZO “Better Together” are among the most sought-after culinary and gift experiences

Today, experiential dining is one of the strongest drivers of modern hospitality – emotional, sensual, and unforgettable. Formats such as Toni Mörwald’s PALAZZO in Vienna show how perfectly cuisine, culture, and staging can merge and why spending time together has become the most valuable luxury. “Better Together” exemplifies a trend that is shaping the industry and booming as a gift idea, especially at Christmas: enjoyment, entertainment, and shared amazement in an evening full of magic.
