AURA by Alexander Herrmann & Tobias Bätz

Alexander Herrmann is a MICHELIN-starred chef, a restaurateur, a cookbook author, and a famous face on account of his appearances on various TV cooking shows. Located in Wirsberg, his family-run Posthotel is steeped in tradition. He and head chef Tobias Bätz form a well-oiled machine in this chic, modern and elegant fine dining restaurant. Their set menu (either with meat or vegetarian) proposes a culinary adventure showcasing the finest Franconian ingredients, including some real rarities. These are creatively and occasionally very elaborately prepared to go into dishes such as pickled and fried forest mushrooms with forest mushroom broth, larch oil, cassis berries and spruce extract. Accompanied by Franconian wines. The set menu starts at 6pm. Friendly service is provided with aplomb – even the chefs get in on the act and talk you through the dishes. The small cards with information about the ingredients which have been prepared and preserved in Future Lab ANIMA are a nice touch.
