Three Swedish chefs have earned the title of court tractor: Tore Wretman (appointed 1966) and Werner Vögeli (appointed 1977) and Stefano Catenacci (appointed 2012). This means that Opera Cellar’s star chef, Stefano Catenacci, is responsible for the food at performance dinners, gala banquets and other larger dinners where the king is the host.
For example, he was responsible for the culinary experience when the king in 2016 celebrated his 70th birthday with a huge party at the castle. And even before becoming a court tractor, Stefano Catenacci was entrusted with preparing the menu for Victoria and Daniel’s wedding, where guests were able to enjoy, among other things, cod in flower tripe with cucumber jelly and Stenhammar beef tenderloin with roasted shallot fries.
Long-term relationship
Over time, a closer relationship has emerged between the court and Stefano Catenacci. He cooked the food when Madeleine got married in 2013. He has also been invited to participate in panel discussions she organized in New York, USA.
Stefan Catenacci himself is happy to emphasize the court assignment, as in an interview when he has just returned to the Opera Basement after his stroke.
– I see they are lighting the castle now, it’s time for me to go.
Choose to wait
So how does the court view the allegations made in the Dagens ETC review?
– The court has taken note of the information. Based on that, we follow the development of the events, says the court’s information manager, Margareta Thorgren.
What does that mean?
– This means that we have taken note of the information and we take seriously what comes up. But now we follow the development, what other media write.
He tells Expressen that the court has not been in contact with Stefan Catenacci because of this. Is it still the case?
– Yes it’s correct.
But isn’t following developments a passive line?
– What we do is follow the development.
Today’s ETC has also asked the court how is the financial agreement with the court tractor. How much money has been allocated to Stefano Catenacci and Operakällaren since 2012? And this commercial deal is carried out within the framework of the apanage?
– There is nothing I can comment on currently, says Margareta Thorgren.
