When you’re on the slopes and hunger hits: Restaurant Chamanna Naluns (6. March 2016)
It was one of these days when the weather was quite intense, the first snow of the year, or at least the first time there was enough snow so you could actually ski. And when you are on the slopes the whole morning going up and down over and over again there is that very […]
Overprized hotel and average breakfast: Restaurant Red @ Hotel 7132 (28. February 2016)
When you stay at the Hotel 7132, you will end up paying around CHF 400.00 for a room – and then you will have to pay another CHF 30.00 for the breakfast. The price for the breakfast is fine but that you are charged an additional CHF 30.00 per person when the room is rather […]
Not so satisfying main course: Restaurant La Cucina (27. February 2016)
The “3-course menu from the Grisons” (CHF 55.00) sounded very promising and it started quite okay. The “starters’ plate from the Grisons” (usually CHF 21.00) consisted of “a mangold tart”, “breaded cheese”, “some salad”, “panna cotta” and “dried beef Grisons style with cheese and apple cubes”. I did like the dried beef Grisons style with […]
Where you still get real Swiss dishes: Restaurant Glenner (27. February 2016)
If you are looking for a typical specialty from the Grisons in Vals, then you should come to Glenner (as long as it is still opened). The “Valser Chrut – Capuns with broth” (CHF 24.00) is not the best capuns I have had so far but it was good, and very fair in price. The […]
30. December 2015: Restaurant San Jon
Frankly, it is not easy to find the Restaurant San Jon as it is located super remote even from a place like Scuol. While the drive up there in winter needs quite some caution, it is actually worth it. You can do a sleigh ride there and enjoy the beauty of the nature and sunset […]
29. December 2015: GuardaVal Gourmet Restaurant @ Romantik & Boutique-Hotel GuardaVal
If you are a larger group you are required to guarantee your reservation by credit card but it is definitely worth doing so. The evening started with a “small greeting from the kitchen – a variation of veal: veal broth, veal tartar, sweetbread, veal tongue)”. The broth was intense and lovely, the tartar smooth but […]
29. December 2015: Wine & Bar Lounge @ Hotel Belvédère
Whenever I am in Scuol, I pay the Hotel Belvédère a visit because they have a nice bar with a nice terrace. However, this time I was rather disappointed! When entering the bar I asked for space and was referred to the lobby area as the bar area had been reserved. As the bartender obviously […]
15. October 2015: Restaurant Alter Torkel
As every year when it is time to prepare the four weeks of army for the upcoming year, it was our duty to pay the Alter Torkel a visit – and as always we started with “brawn” (CHF 15.00). The selection is good as always and the brawn is tasty as always. The “veal back […]
