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.

“Mission Ikarus

When culinary legends unite friendship, competition, and the future

In November 2025, an extraordinary gastronomic event will take place in the legendary setting of the Ikarus restaurant in Red Bull Hangar-7 in Salzburg: Under the motto Tim Mälzer & Friends – A Duel, A Promise – Mission Ikarus, four of the biggest names in German-speaking cuisine have come together to cook with and against each other. At the center: Tim Mälzer, Tim Raue, Alexander Herrmann, and Lukas Mraz – complemented by the Ikarus team led by executive chef Martin Klein.

Oak 107

Excellence on every plate

From Japan to Vienna: Oak 107 in the 6th district is Vienna’s only Kobe restaurant and one of Austria’s top addresses for fine steaks and exceptional cuts. Selected by Japanese cattle breeder Muneharu Ozaki himself, Oak 107 has been serving his exclusive meat since mid-October. This is an honor bestowed on only a few restaurants in Europe—including renowned establishments in Munich, Amsterdam, and Barcelona—and makes Oak 107 in Vienna a real hotspot.
