Berlin star chef The Duc Ngo has done it again, unveiling his new pop-up location Le Duc Berlin. The kick-off event was the Rolling Pin speaker's dinner on the occasion of the 2022 #rpcon. Together with his guest chefs, The Duc Ngo presented quite unconventionally what constitutes contemporary gastronomy for him. Fresh ingredients were prepared in front of the guests from gastronomy and media and thus the culinary network was cultivated in a casual atmosphere. I had the pleasure to accompany this evening with a dessert as well as with the camera.

However, it should not remain with only one brilliant evening, The Duc Ngo has created a playground for himself and his team with the Le Duc Salon and cooks what is fun and lies on his tongue. In addition to his great team, consisting of his head chefs Daniel Feldsmann and Masao Watari, The Duc Ngo also likes to invite guest chefs to celebrate great products with him in a relaxed atmosphere. Le Duc Salon Seafood is probably the hottest topic, next to the Ramen Pop-Ups and I was allowed to cook a second time with the Le Duc Salon team as well as report a little in words and pictures.
