Mühle
Owner Marius Tröndle has a decidedly ambitious man at the helm in Fabian Obergfell. The chef delivers modern cuisine, cooking with great sensibility, finesse and consummate precision. Often he pares back his dishes to just a handful of components, and the result is a wonderfully harmonious balance of flavours – one highlight is the superbly roasted calf sweetbread with a crunchy, paper-thin crust and a creamy, melt-in-the-mouth centre, served on a vin jaune sauce with pointed cabbage and garnished with pickled grape halves and crispy pointed cabbage leaves as chips. The hors-d'œuvres whet the
WebsiteSommerau
The trip to the Hegar family's restaurant just outside Bonndorf is definitely worth it! Nestled in a quiet valley, surrounded by woods and meadows, the setting could not be more idyllic. There's an inviting terrace, but you can also enjoy the view from inside. The cuisine is regional and seasonal, including French and Mediterranean influences. The dishes are meticulously crafted and packed with flavour. Great care is taken to source ingredients.

Following the reopening of Hotel Auerhahn, owner Marius Tröndle (who also runs Mühle in Schluchsee) has appointed an ambitious new head chef to lead his fine dining restaurant.

Open from noon to 8.30pm, Brasserie Barbara is an appealing daytime alternative to the fine dining restaurant here at the Auerhahn "wellness hotel", which is just across the road from the lake, Schluchsee. The bright, friendly atmosphere is inviting. The completely open kitchen produces cleverly devised dishes that are both bold and pleasingly uncomplicated. Based on top-notch ingredients, they are deeply rooted in regional culinary tradition.

WebsiteKamino
The Zumkeller family have transformed what was once Chämi-Hüsli into this cosy restaurant and tapas bar – the striking fireplace with extended flue after which Kamino is named presides in the middle of the dining area, which has a high ceiling and a round floor plan. The classic and Mediterranean cuisine always has a modern touch and a certain pizazz. Dishes such as roasted sea bass fillet with home-made tagliarini and lobster cream give the tasty tapas a run for their money. The icing on the cake is the charming service provided by owner Stefanie Zumkeller and her team. For an overnight stay,
