Chef Joel Ostrat Brings the Spirit of Tartu to VEMU’s 12th Fundraising Evening

In just a few days, on Saturday May 4th at 6:00 PM, VEMU Estonian Museum Canada will be hosting its 12th annual fundraising evening. Fuelling the event is a search for the spirit of Tartu (“Tartu vaim” as it’s known), for which University of Tartu Library director Krista Aru will deliver the keynote speech.

Jarek Kasar (AKA Chalice) will also sing and rap, entertaining the crowd at Tartu College with wordplay and adventurous songwriting.

But that still leaves the question of what will fill the plates and glasses of those attending. VEMU has shared the menu, but read below to get to know the man behind it, Chef Joel Ostrat.

Vincent Teetsov: Your approach to food has several different angles — overseeing the Gustav café and pastry chain, numerous restaurants, menu and product development, hosting meals, and the TV show Joel Ostrat’s Big Dinner. Which format do you feel represents your style the most as a chef?

Joel Ostrat: My show Joel Ostrati suur õhtusöök probably shows me in the most authentic way. In this show, you’re seeing me just as I am.

"I'm fascinated by dishes with history — the classics — but when I make them, I still add a bit of who I am."

(Joel Ostrat)
