Surrounded by untouched nature, this spot 1 052m above sea level in the Entlebuch Biosphere Reserve feels like a world of its own. With mountains and valleys, meadows and forests all around, this environment is a source of the most diverse ingredients and flavours. Stefan Wiesner's nature-inspired, alchemistic cuisine forms part of a unique, captivating and at times provocative experience – a kind of personal ceremony that it is well worth embracing. It begins with the chef-patron's opening words and includes glimpses into his artistic world, as well as diner participation in the finishing and plating of dishes. His set menu, which changes to reflect the seasons, puts the theme of fire centre stage, and he introduces each of the nine courses with a little story. To do justice to the wonderful view, this extraordinary culinary experience starts at noon. Incidentally, the knives are made by his son Jo, whose forge is located on site. Overnight accommodation is available at Weitsicht hotel, which also hosts exclusive seminars.
