This chic, pared-back restaurant with a lovely terrace area is located in the Weingut Matthias Dostert, a winery that also offers cosy guestrooms. Chef Walter Curman draws on his considerable craftsmanship to meticulously create flavoursome dishes. The classics on the menu hint at his Austrian origins – try the appetising Kaspressknödel (pressed cheese dumplings) or Alt Wiener Kaiserschmarrn (Viennese pancake)!

Located in Nittel, Culinarium emphasizes farm-to-table dining and holds a high 4.8/5 rating. Food quality is frequently praised for fresh ingredients like asparagus and seafood, though some note small portions and a lack of menu innovation.
