First mentioned in records in 1705, the original Spielweg building, managed by the Fuchs family, makes for a wonderfully cosy setting. The charming dining rooms are done out in traditional Black Forest style and the service is extremely friendly and attentive. Diners can expect classic regional cuisine that is ambitious and full of flavour, as in the warm smoked char from the Wutach in a cold potato and leek broth. It also draws on Asian influences, cf. their wild boar dim sum with soy sauce – Asian cuisine is one of the young chef's passions. The lunchtime menu proposes somewhat simpler fare, making this place an ideal stop-off for a light meal during a hike. You can stay overnight in well-kept, individually furnished guestrooms.
