This quintessential Appenzell building looks inviting from the outside, and the interior is equally stylish. Come and savour Silvia Manser's cuisine, which is based on carefully selected ingredients, in a pleasingly simple yet upscale setting. In her four- to seven-course menu – available in both vegetarian and non-vegetarian versions – she brings together modern interpretations of classic cuisine with Mediterranean influences and occasionally incorporates Middle Eastern and Asian accents. Her talent for combining boldness with finesse is evident in dishes such as "tuna tataki, mango, onion, coriander", "leek 'carbonara', cured egg yolk, shiitake", or "Appenzell lamb, falafel, chickpeas, courgette". Silvia Manser runs the restaurant with her husband Thomas – the two form a perfectly attuned team. She is at the helm in the kitchen; he oversees the service with warmth and expertise, guiding diners through an excellent wine list devoted to Switzerland, France and Italy, including a fine range of vintages.
