Culinary

Our à la carte menus are based on a carefully and creatively composed vegetarian foundation. On request, dishes can be complemented with meat or fish, allowing us to offer our guests a flexible and individual choice.


When selecting our products, we consciously focus on regional partners and short supply routes:

  • Holzen Fleisch: Since 2003, this company has stood for Swiss meat of the highest quality, processed using traditional craftsmanship.
