“The rainbow trout from Alvaneu with saffron foam and a viscid Acquarello risotto and vanilla spinach” (CHF 38.00) was perfect. The fish was rich in taste and the fishbones were easily removable. The risotto was yummy and the vanilla spinach was really kind of a revelation. The sweetness of the vanilla in combination with something […]
24. January 2015: Restaurant Belfort
The Restaurant Belfort offered a menu for CHF 49.50. It started with a “Grisonian barley soup” which was good but a bit too watery for my taste. The “Seasonal salad” was a regular Swiss restaurant salad with no special sauce. Good to eat but nothing beyond that. The “beef filet goulash stroganoff with spaetzle” was […]

The “light pumpkin bell pepper foam soup with roasted pumpkin seeds” (CHF 10.50) was quite okay. It lacked a bit in intensity but was of good taste. The “beef roast from the Herrschaft prepared in Grisonian Pinot Noir with porcini, homemade spaetzle and root vegetables” (CHF 23.00) somehow lacked specialty. The roast was okay and […]
20. January 2015: Restaurant Sonnenhalde
While at first the “tasty tomato cream soup with croûtons” (CHF 7.90) looks not too appealing I must admit it was definitely way better than expected. The soup is made from actual tomatoes (or pelati) and not produced via a concentrate as you can actually taste the pulp of the tomato which makes it quite […]
19. January 2015: Restaurant Guarda Val Sporz
After a nice tea in the sun it was time to go one floor up to the restaurant for lunch. I went for rather typical dishes from the region and started with a “bread soup from Sporz with sour cream, boiled fillet, and horseradish” (CHF 18.00). The soup was served in an old jam glass […]
19. January 2015: Crap Naros Bar
The Crap Naros Bar is part of the Hotel Guarda Val and was recommended to me by a friend. When I was trying to find the place it proofed to be more tricky than I thought as it is not really in Lenzerheide itself but in a little place called Sporz and you have to […]
15. January 2015: Restaurant Usteria Bellavista
To this place you would never go – unless you already knew it before or because you know why you want to go there. The restaurant is secluded and not easy to find and you have to drive up many curves until you finally arrive at the Restaurant Usteria Bellavista. But let me tell you […]
12. January 2014: Restaurant Sonnenhalde
The “cold cuts and cheese plate” for two (CHF 45.00) is definitely fine. I have had better plates before but the selection of cold cuts is absolutely okay. Only the selection of cheeses is a bit limited and could definitely be improved. However, overall the cold cuts plate is absolutely fine. The lounge area of […]
