Chef Gal Ben Moshe - Owner & Chef, Prism, Berlin
Chef Gal Ben Moshe is the first Israeli chef to win a Michelin Star for his Germany-based restaurant, Prism.
Chef Gal started his career at Orca in Tel Aviv which was a very modern French restaurant. He later moved to London where he worked at Gordon Ramsay’s then 1- Michelin starred ‘Maze’ in Mayfair, 2-Michelin starred ‘Marcus’ by Marcus Wareing at The Berkeley in Knightsbridge, and 2-Michelin starred ‘Hibiscus’ under Claude Bosi in Mayfair. He then got an opportunity to train at Alinea in Chicago under the great Grant Achatz. He eventually made his way to Berlin in 2012 to open his first restaurant, GLASS. There he was awarded 16 points in the Gault & MiIllau and was also nominated for the Berlin Master Chef Award.
His cooking is indisputably contemporary and creative, but still taps into what he calls 'a historically neglected kitchen,' namely thousands of years of Eastern Arabic cooking from Lebanon, Syria and Palestine. "I want to recreate historic recipes, ideas, textures, and flavors by bringing them into modern times and fine dining. Ultimately, diners will get tastes of my home and a true sense of the occasion.
