The Experience
From Michelin Guide
This restaurant is located in Severin's Resort & Spa, where guests can enjoy a stay in pleasantly understated luxury. In summer, take an aperitif on the quiet, leafy terrace behind the building, before heading inside to the stylish modern dining space to savour René Verse's culinary creations, which are crafted with precision and feel delightfully effortless. Nils Henkel, after whom this place is named, has clearly put his own stamp on the menu. His vegetable-based cuisine, with which he made a name for himself once upon a time, is skilfully integrated here, including in both the Flora and Fauna set menus. The sea bream with carrot-coriander juice and young carrots is a wonderful example of how he combines vegetables with premium fish. You can also swap out courses or order à la carte. Tip: Book a room in the hotel, then you are free to make the most of the impressive wine list.
