The Kunz family currently leads the eleventh generation of hosts within this historic timber-framed structure. Guests arrive expecting the steady warmth that comes from decades of uninterrupted hospitality. Traditional recipes have traveled through countless hands without losing their original character.
The kitchen grounds its menu in seasonal produce sourced directly from the surrounding valleys. Signature preparations include a rich venison pepper and a carefully roasted rack of lamb. These dishes demonstrate how the chefs balance classic techniques with subtle modern adjustments in Baden cooking. Dietary requirements receive equal attention through dedicated gluten-free and lactose-free offerings built around certified organic components.
