Hotel in Bangkok Appoints Chef Gabi Kurz as Wellness Cuisine Consultant

The Mövenpick BDMS Wellness Resort in Bangkok has appointed Chef Gabi Kurz as Wellness Cuisine Consultant.

In addition to her experience in high-end restaurants and hotels in Europe and the Middle East, Chef Gabi has also written several vegetarian cookbooks, one of which was honoured with the ‘World Cookbook Award’ in Paris.

She is the Patron of the German Obesity Association, a member of the German BioSpitzenKoeche (Bio Top Chef), and was named ‘Culinary Influencer of the Year’ 2013 by ProChef Middle East and ‘Sustainability Champion of the Year’ in 2015.

In December 2018, Chef Gabi founded Akademie Kurz Health Culinary Arts & Consulting, an F&B consultancy company that works with hospitality businesses worldwide.

Chef Gabi has now brought her expertise to Mövenpick BDMS Wellness Resort where she will work with the resort’s team to design health-focused menus that combine fresh, high-quality and wholesome ingredients, prepared in innovative styles to deliver delicious dishes that are great for the body.

“This project is very dear to my heart, as I am able to incorporate health food into an international hotel. It is clearly understood now that everything we consume directly impacts our physical condition. Food is fuel, and eating well is the best way of allowing our bodies to perform at the best of their ability. I believe strongly in this concept and I am delighted to be able to present it to guests on a global stage at Mövenpick BDMS Wellness Resort,” Chef Gabi said.

Many of the menu items have been developed scientifically to cater for the specific courses offered at the BDMS Wellness Clinic, such as heart health, weight management, anti-aging and brain function. This makes the resort’s F&B a key part of its holistic approach to wellness, combining medical services with healthy cuisine, personal fitness, mindfulness and more.

“We are delighted to be working with Chef Gabi, who is a genuine pioneer in the field of wellness cuisine. With her expert guidance, we have devised dishes that taste great while also being packed full of nutritional goodness. We look forward to delighting even more diners with our exciting menus in future,” said Bruno Huber, General Manager, Mövenpick BDMS Wellness Resort.
