Gastronomy

Coffee and cake with a view of the lake, a snack plate with Ahler sausage, hearty dishes from the fish smokehouse, the best homemade ice cream you can imagine, excellent restaurants, high confectionery art, cafés, cocktail bars and nice restaurants - there are moments of culinary happiness everywhere. 

The Dülfershof near Bad Wildungen and some goat cheese dairies traditionally produce cheese by hand. They supply restaurateurs and regional shops and sell in their own farm shop. The idyllic Lauterbach farm near Vöhl received one of the first licenses for grain distilling in Hesse in 1786. Grain and fruit brandies are made with ingredients from our own organic cultivation.

From the fruit garden straight to the bottle – the fruit wine cellar in Basdorf also produces liqueurs, mulled wine, juices and spreads. Another initiative is the Old Mill in Dalwigstal near Lichtenfels. Since there was no place for hikers to stop, the owners opened a mill café with a beer garden and a shop with fine regional products. The Hofcafé at the National Park in Frebershausen is just one example of many that offer regional dishes such as Ahle Worscht or Edertaler Trout on their menu.

Something is happening in the country. Regional foods are trendy

Wildes from Waldeck offers specialties from local manufacturers. “Regional products are honest, credible and identity-forming. The guests love them,” says Hubertus Nottscheid. The gourmet workshop is integrated and serves fresh snacks. The rooms of a former locksmith's shop are given new life as a workshop distillery. The plan is to reopen the doors for show distilling and tastings.
       

“Freshness and regionality are important to us. We source everything from farms and butchers that we know, where production is done in a species-appropriate and ecological manner. That’s better than organic products from Eastern Europe, because short transport routes are also a building block for sustainability.”

by Lukas, chef from Waldeck
