Holiday season specialties

We take a look back at our festive holiday season specialties, with mouthwatering dishes to suit everyone's tastes. In the run-up to Christmas, our guests were able to look forward to a new culinary discovery every Wednesday, accompanied by a salad and a yuletide dessert. Every creation offered a unique culinary experience, with specialties ranging from hearty beef roulade with hazelnut spaetzle noodles and Brussels sprouts, to vegan stroganoff with potato gratin and salad, and winter roast stuffed with a baked apple and minced meat filling, served with dumplings and red cabbage. The crowning finish was vegan sweet potato gnocchi with pumpkin, mushroom ragout, arugula pesto and salad.

Goose to go

We take a moment to gaze back at our festive “goose to go" offer — your stress-free holiday meal for four people. If you ordered in advance, you could get a carved goose with red cabbage, potato dumplings and roasted apples. By picking up your order the day before Christmas Eve and heating it up according to the instructions, you could effortlessly serve a festive goose dinner with all the trimmings for you and your loved ones. Good for the goose and for the gander!
