Moments of Taste 2026: New Edition of the Culinary Voucher Book for Gourmets Presented

With the vouchers, consumers receive menus for two people at the price of just one menu. This allows book owners to save up to 6,000 euros. The price for the voucher book remains - as in the previous year - at 129 euros.

Award-Winning Cuisine & Co: What to Expect from "Moments of Taste 2026"

The concept of the new edition, according to the press release: Predominantly award-winning restaurants, carefully selected, complemented by hotels and wineries participating for the first time. A positive innovation for consumers is also highlighted at the very beginning of the 2026 edition: The useful overview of the validity period of the vouchers and the location of the restaurants, making the organization of restaurant visits easier.

According to the press release, the voucher book was sold 3,500 times last year. As Franz Bernthaler, Managing Director of Culinarius & House of Viva Verlags GmbH, added at the press conference, an average of 15 vouchers per book were redeemed. Since these are 2for1 vouchers, there were about 105,000 guests who, equipped with vouchers, indulged in fine cuisine throughout Austria. "Moments of Taste shows how powerful gastronomy can be as an economic factor. We create a product that inspires guests and brings real frequency to businesses. For us, it is a mission: to make quality visible and strengthen local businesses," Bernthaler proudly states about the project.

Nicolas Engel, head chef at the fine dining restaurant "OPUS", is confident that the vouchers help lower the threshold for visiting a fine dining establishment, encouraging more guests to venture into such places. Toni Mörwald, a 4-award-winning and star chef, is also represented with several restaurants this year and shares a similar view: "Meal time is life time – and this project reflects exactly that. Moments of Taste opens up access to genuine culinary craftsmanship. It enhances appreciation for quality, encounters, and conscious enjoyment."
