The Experience
From Michelin Guide
This restaurant is in Der WILDe EDER, a tasteful wellness hotel, the name of which refers to patrons Eveline Wild and Stefan Eder. The vibe is chic, the glass-paned façade affords a view of the greenery – with a bit of luck you'll get to take in the sunset. The menu consists of seven courses and various small bites, enhanced by the nice idea of each course being accompanied by a story on a card. The chef serves the dishes himself and explains his philosophy, which revolves around nature, seasonal produce and sustainability. He also has a soft spot for vegetarian dishes. The crowning finale is the patronne's desserts! The friendly and competent team will recommend the right wine to accompany the creative dishes; the selection comprises over 450 items, including many regional wines.
