If there is one thing that is important to chef Alexander Hettegger in his work, it is the culinary combination of regional and seasonal products. He is not only part of the host family, but also heads the 2 toque award-winning kitchen at the gourmet hotel DAS EDELWEISS Salzburg Mountain Resort high above the peaks in Salzburger Land. Thanks to his talent for perfecting traditional delicacies, he creates especially pleasurable moments with his EDELWEISS Mountain Cuisine. The in-house Petrus Fine Dining restaurant specializes entirely in exclusive course menus in the Kaminstube, which are rounded off with perfectly matched wines and excellent non-alcoholic cocktails. Those who prefer hearty steak will find what they are looking for at the Sirloin Grill & Dine, the in-house steak restaurant. Wine lovers will be spoiled in the stylishly furnished Wine Bar Kork & Gloria with fine wines from the hotel archive. How about a gourmet table for tasting?

Culinary highlight: The EDELWEISS is the only hotel in the region with a new sushi bar directly in the lobby. Sushi master Alexis from Laos creates wonderfully fresh variations from Monday to Friday. Very exquisite.
