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.
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.
