After the verdict in the trial surrounding star chef Alfons Schuhbeck, the event location “Schuhbecks teatro” is taking action and changing its name.
Munich – A pitch-black day for Munich's gastronomic icon Alfons Schuhbeck (73).
First, the star chef was sentenced to three years and two months in prison in the tax evasion process in the District Court I in Munich.
Long-time companions or business partners of the 73-year-old are now drawing consequences from the incident.
The well-known teatro mirror tent, which previously bore his name - "Schuhbecks teatro" - has now announced that it intends to discard the name of the TV chef.
According to the verdict: "Schuhbecks teatro" officially announces a name change
Anyone who is reasonably confident in the Munich gastronomy scene has certainly heard me from “Schuhbecks teatro”.
The event location has been attracting fans of good taste and stylish evening entertainment for years.
Since last year, the namesake Schuhbeck has only acted as the famous face of the company.
In its press release published today, Thursday, October 27th, it says: "Last winter the founding family Zipse decided that the implementation of the gastronomy will also be carried out on their own."

In order to clearly distinguish itself from Schuhbeck and his court case, the teatro also writes on its homepage.
“Schuhbecks teatro has been an economically independent event of teatro events GmbH since 2012.
The teatro is not the subject of the Alfons Schuhbeck trial.” And so it was only logical that the name was changed after the verdict.
"The dinner show will change its previous name 'Schuhbecks teatro' to 'teatro' with immediate effect."

Schuhbeck will continue to appear in the "teatro" for the time being
However, you don't want to break with the long-standing friend of the house completely.
Because, as the statement goes on to say, even if "the collaboration has come to an end, the teatro and the Zipse family will remain on friendly terms with Alfons Schuhbeck".
There is also talk of “years of successful cooperation”.
Against this background, it is perhaps not surprising that, according to information from
tz.de
and
Merkur.de
, Schuhbeck will be performing again tonight in the teatro tent.
He had previously announced this.
In addition, the company emphasized in the press release that the "teatro mirror tent" will continue to open the curtain for its guests every evening.
According to the website, this year's "MOONIA" program will start as planned on October 28th.
Tickets for the show and the menu can be purchased until April 23, 2023 at a price of 99 euros per person.
