Gourmet hot hearts will be chilled by drinks served in unique ice glasses at the magical Ice wines Ice Bar. Guests' wellbeing will be taken care of by Walter Krause, a taste-of-life acquaintance, as he enjoys the vast offering.

“Everything will be beetroot!” because the festival star, or special product that chefs will include in recipes this time, will be – beetroot. It was this healthy garden last year that the taste masters forged from the secret ice chest.
