Michelin-Starred Chef Gal Ben Moshe Leads Culinary Vision for New Tel Aviv Hotel

Chef Gal Ben Moshe, who recently concluded his role at the restaurant Pastel, has been appointed as the head of the culinary division at The Byron hotel, set to open in 2027 on Tel Aviv's coastline near Metzitzim Beach. Ben Moshe will serve as the executive chef, overseeing the development and management of four distinct dining venues within the hotel, each operating under a unified culinary concept he will lead.

This new venture marks a significant transition for Ben Moshe, who also closed his Berlin restaurant Prism about six months ago. Prism held a Michelin star from 2020 and maintained it for six consecutive years until Ben Moshe left Berlin amid the height of the war. The Byron hotel will feature 62 suites and an infinity pool, signaling a major hospitality project in Tel Aviv.

With his focus shifting back to Israel, expectations are high for Ben Moshe's culinary leadership at The Byron. The project is closely watched as a key development in the local culinary scene, with many eager to see if he will meet the high hopes placed upon him.
