Taking pleasure in food equals taking pleasure in life. That is exactly the thought behind the Alpenhof Gourmet Showcase Week. A whirlwind of sensual impressions, aromas, regional ingredients, and creative ideas. The Gourmet Showcase Week presents exquisite flavour creations, top Austrian wines, the inimitable Alpenhof atmosphere and offeres the opportunity to enjoy a great time together here in Hintertux. One thing is certain: Happiness shared is happiness doubled! Evenings filled with culinary highlights, sophisticated flavour compositions make you look forward to every new course. The crowning glory of the culinary year, a joy for gourmets, it is a time for indulging all the senses.
With the motto being 'Experience Zillertal', during the day we head out on an excursion together to visit some of our local producers. To begin, we visit ‘Wagyu Tirol’, our Wagyu cattle farmer on the Schwendberg, after that it’s off to Fischzucht Moser in Aschau. An exciting, guided tour awaits at both, and there will of course be plenty of tasting samples to enjoy. (Cost: 50.00 € per person)
We would ask that you register in advance for this item on the programme, since a limited number of spaces are available.
The ‘Experience Zillertal’ motto stays with us into the evening, with our menu for the evening meal wholly focussed on regional produce. The highlight of the evening also awaits: an extensive discussion about cheese with Zillertaler Sennerei.
On Tuesday evening, our first gala evening of the week, 4 ‘toque’ awarded guest chef Vitus Winkler from the Sonnhof by Vitus Winkler in the Pongau, together with our own head chef Maximilian Stock and his team, impress with a gala dinner of the highest culinary standard. The menu will once again be accompanied by Zillertal beer.
This year too, barbecue world champion Adi Bittermann will serve his menu ‘Glowing Passion’ in the lovely, rustic Mehlerhaus. We would ask that you register in advance, since a limited number of spaces are available (65.00 € per person; incl. beer, wine and alcohol-free drinks).
On Thursday, our second gala evening of the week, our head chef Maximilian Stock and his team provide indulgence with a ‘Best of’ in our Genießerstube. The evening is accompanied by a ‘Big Bottle Party’ by Silvia Heinrich wineries in Deutschkreutz/Burgenland and Waldschütz in Strass/Lower Austria.
This year we bring our gourmet week to a close with the Alpenhof Gourmet Party. Once again we create magical, delicious creations for you together with regional partners, including SeeSushi from Salzkammergut.
