Male, February 2022:  An exclusive, multi-course candlelit dinner awaits guests at the award-winning Sea Salt restaurant, from March 20th to 27th.

Originally from Tallinn, the top chef joined Hotel Metropol in Moscow as Executive Chef in 2013 after working in some of the best kitchens in Europe, including previous training at Noma in Copenhagen. His restaurant Savva offers an innovative mix of gala atmosphere, excellent service, and modern Russian cuisine that interprets classic dishes in a contemporary way. Since opening, the Savva has received numerous awards, including the highest rating in the Gault & Millau Guide and a place in La Liste's The World's Best Restaurants Selection, and most recently a star in the Michelin Guide.
