Max Cekot Kitchen

The First MICHELIN Guide Latvia Is Out!

"Set within a red-brick former warehouse in an industrial area on the edge of the city, this sophisticated restaurant showcases Chef-Owner Max Cekot’s vision, from the stylish open kitchen to the furniture and crockery. Numerous elements compose each original dish on the creative surprise menu, with sweet, savoury and acidic flavours balancing one another and delicious sauces bringing everything together. There’s a nod to Latvia’s culinary roots in dishes like grey peas with oyster, pomelo and kohlrabi; home-grown ingredients often feature; and many plates are finished tableside—expect Max to appear to prepare a pesto of herbs and leaves from the kitchen garden to go with the bread. It is the first restaurant in Latvia to receive One MICHELIN Star." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
