According to Chef Jenő Rácz’s philosophy, the founder/creator of the Rumour Restaurant, the experience provided to guests should be much more than just a simple meal. Having started his journey around the globe at a young age, learning from some of the best chefs in some of the most gastronomy iconic destinations such as London, Copenhagen, Singapore and Shanghai, Jenő quickly became an expert and fond of different culinary techniques  Due to his extensive international experience, he was invited to open the Taian Table Restaurant in Shanghai, which was awarded by the Shanghai Edition of Michelin Guide only five months after opening. In 2018 and 2019, Jenő was selected as the coach of the Bocuse D’Or Chinese National team. In 2018 Jenő returned to his homeland and starred as Coach and member of the Jury in no less than four editions of one of the major Hungarian cooking TV shows. Having such a resume, Jeno is now putting all his skills to good by opening the Rumour Restaurant on the 12th of November 2020 in the heart of Budapest with a unique “Theatre Staging” like concept ready to welcome you.
