Culinary: Dessert Inspired Dining Experience

On February 13 and 14, 2026, a refined menu concept will be presented at the Van den Berg Gewürzhaus in Graz's Strauchergasse: BIJA. What sounds like a dessert evening is much more – a creative engagement with the techniques and mindsets of pâtisserie. The focus is not on the sweet conclusion, but on the dessert as a starting point for new culinary narratives. The six courses of the evening consciously break with classic menu sequences. Familiar categories dissolve, and flavors move freely between sweet and savory. Savory elements appear in an unusual role, supported by fine textures, surprising temperatures, and bold aromas. The price of €195.00 per person includes an aperitif, beverage pairing (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), numerous kitchen greetings, water, digestif, and coffee. Registration is required! The setting – the stylishly furnished Van den Berg Gewürzhaus – provides the perfect backdrop for an experiment that unites tradition and innovation on Graz soil. An evening in the Graz experience region that rethinks the boundaries between kitchen and pâtisserie.
