★★★ Michelin€€€€Creative, Modern Cuisine

From the get-go, the stage is set in grand style: Following a spectacular overture in the form of various aperitifs, an artisanal bread selection and amuse-bouches, Edip Sigl reveals why it is worth making the trip to dine at this restaurant in Das Achental hotel. He presents two incredible set menus: "Chiemgau pur" (devoted to the region) and "Chiemgau goes around the world" (a combination of local and international ingredients). Both feature modern creations that are complex but not overdone, highly refined and consistently elegant – think langoustine, artichoke, kumquat, pea, bisque, or the

Restaurant Karner

★ Michelin€€€€Creative, Regional Cuisine

This quintessential Chiemgau country inn, which is over 600 years old, blends tradition and modernity to delightful effect. Warm, aged wood and premium contemporary design elements are juxtaposed to make for a tasteful and comfortable setting. Headed up by Hannes Fussel, who has worked in some of Austria's finest kitchens, the team serves up dishes packed with flavour and personality that are very much inspired by the Chiemsee region. The set menu (aptly named "A Stroll through Chiemgau") features, for example, tenderly glazed sturgeon on a ragout of artichokes, accompanied by sauerkraut beurr

Epicures

★ Michelin€€€€Modern French

Iconic chef Heinz Winkler really put his Residenz hotel on the culinary map.

Led by Daniel Pape, the thoroughly dedicated kitchen team sticks to the tried-and-tested formula: classic cuisine with modern touches made with excellent ingredients.

Michaels Leitenberg

★ Michelin€€€€Modern Cuisine, Creative

Who would expect to find a restaurant like this in the small town of Frasdorf? This place may be a little out of the way, but the talent and ambition of the young chef definitely make a visit worthwhile.

The quality of the ingredients is beyond question. The seasonal Bavarian venison served with a pepper curry, for example, is delicious, not to mention the exquisite desserts. Fantastic wine li

Wachter Foodbar

★ Michelin€€€€Modern Cuisine, Regional Cuisine

In the former cookery school and bistro of his mentor Thomas Mühlberger, young Dominik Wachter has introduced a modern "counter concept". In the cool, chic and urban atmosphere, you sit comfortably at the large bar in the middle of the space or at one of the high tables, from which you can watch the action at the kitchen pass unfold. The set menu (choose between four- to six-course formats) uses mainly regional ingredients, and the owner also forages for mushrooms, wild herbs, nuts etc from the local forests. Time after time, Dominik Wachter successfully presents beautifully balanced contrasts

Haubentaucher

★ Michelin€€€€Farm to table, Creative

The fabulous lakeside location and wonderful terrace are certainly part of the appeal here, but this restaurant has plenty more to recommend it. Dedicated chef-patron Alois Neuschmid, who earned a MICHELIN star years ago at Lois, his previous restaurant here in the same town, cooks up a storm for his guests. At lunchtime, the menu features simpler daily specials, such as fried black pudding, pasta or Wiener schnitzel; in the evening, fine dining is the name of the game, with a four-course surprise menu. In the contemporary, seasonally inspired dishes, the main ingredient is often presented in

Restaurant Überfahrt

★ Michelin€€€€Classic Cuisine, Farm to table

Cornelia Fischer, who heads up the kitchen at the fine dining restaurant of the splendid Althoff Seehotel Überfahrt, is by no means a rookie when it comes to running a kitchen. Most recently head chef at Zur Schwane in Volkach, she is now showcasing her contemporary take on classic cuisine here at Überfahrt. Excellent ingredients go into the two four-course set menus, one of which is vegetarian. The fresh, tenderly cooked Breton langoustine with delicious braised fennel and a classic shellfish and orange sauce is one outstanding example. Additional dishes can be swapped in or out to tailor you

June

★ Michelin€€€Regional Cuisine, Modern Cuisine

Rico Birndt has come up with a modern concept that makes vegetables the heart of the meal. There are two surprise menus – one comprising eight courses and the other 12 courses. Canned, cured and pickled ingredients also have their role to play. The airy, modern interior and the relaxed atmosphere are certainly inviting, the large window front provides a view of the outside. There are a few seats at the small bar – here, jars of preserves are part of the decoration, in keeping with the philosophy of the house. The chefs join in with serving the food and are happy to present and explain the dish

Les Deux Kitzbühel - Brasserie & Bar

Does the name "Les Deux" sound familiar? Following in the footsteps of his Munich "original", Fabrice Kieffer's sophisticated concept has now also made its way here.

A case in point is his pairing of Simmental beef fillet, stuffed morels, red wine sauce and celeriac purée

Guat'z Essen

★ Michelin€€€€Vegetarian, Seasonal Cuisine

This restaurant may be rather inconspicuously located on the edge of a small village, but it is certainly worthy of your attention. "From Permaculture to Table" is the concept behind it. Peter Fankhauser is doing remarkable work here in two respects: first, he keeps a 1 000m² permaculture garden and is therefore himself able to supply the restaurant with fruit and vegetables. Only cereals and dairy produce are sourced elsewhere in the region. Secondly, these ingredients are transformed into elaborate dishes that are brimming with flavour and aroma, complexity and intensity. They serve a single

Gabelspiel

★ Michelin€€€€Modern Cuisine, Farm to table

Located in the middle of Giesing, this small restaurant run by Sabrina and Florian Berger is a real hit! This is partly down to the completely unpretentious and pleasantly informal atmosphere – you can sense the owners' dedication here. Heading up the front-of-house team is the incredibly friendly and professional lady of the house, who ensures that everything runs smoothly. Another major draw is the modern cuisine made from regional produce. With prime ingredients and remarkable skill, Florian Berger creates impressive dishes such as wild boar and egg yolk ravioli with cocoa and barberry. A v

As the name suggests, the emphasis here is on fish dishes. The menu features, for example, house-made fish soup with rouille sauce and baguette, or perch fillet in a garlic and herb butter with parsley potatoes, but there are also meat and vegetarian options. The grappa and brandy selection is really impressive and might tempt you to stay for a nightcap. In fine weather, the best spot is the terrace overlooking the lake.
