Star chef Johann Lafer is not stepping down at 65.

On the contrary: his "Simply Tasty" project sets a new focus and makes star cooking knowledge easy to digest.

"A life for good taste" - the book title of Johann Lafer's "culinary autobiography" summarizes what the Austrian star chef stands for.

Finely coordinated aromas and creative compositions: whatever Johann Lafer gets his hands on becomes a taste experience.

The students at Lafer's Table d'Or cooking school in Guldental (Rhineland-Palatinate) agree on this.

Lafer's career stages also show that he has a special knack for the culinary side of life.

He was chef pâtissier at the Hotel Schweizerhof in Berlin, cook at the top restaurant "Le Canard" in Hamburg and gained experience in France in the production company "Lenôtre", which sells its food to the best houses in Europe.

Johann Lafer likes to think back to his Styrian roots and his childhood on the farm: you won't find any airs and graces in him, who turns 65 on September 27th.

"Anyone who wants an autograph from me will always get one," assures the star chef.

His love of home is also evident in his recipes.

Time and time again, originals from Austrian cuisine can be found in Lafer's repertoire – both classic and excitingly reinterpreted.

His autobiography also includes family recipes such as "Baked chicken with main salad".

Making the local cuisine known across national borders: Lafer is currently pursuing this wish together with “Singapore Airlines”.

Slowly stewed ribs with pretzel dumplings and root vegetable puree as well as Linzer wafers with hazelnut meringue – Lafer creates gourmet on-board menus for First and Business Class on all flights departing from Germany.

The entrepreneur has already written many books, and he has also felt comfortable in TV cooking shows for decades.

With the new "Einfach Tasty" cooperation, Lafer now also wants to reach the young target group in social media.

The star chef passes on his knowledge in videos - on the one hand in the form of recipes, on the other hand via kitchen hacks.
