Food and wine list

From kitchen and cellar

The Seeland on your plate

The menu changes four times a year, the daily dishes every day. Marc Zbinden cooks classically, with long-simmered sauces and few ingredients per plate. Two thirds of the wines come from Mont Vully.

  • Vully cheese cream soup

    CHF 12.50

    Made with semi-hard cheese from a cheesemaker on Mont Vully, seasoned with a spoonful of white wine. Served with a croûton of yesterday's house bread.

  • Raw ham with pickled beetroot

    CHF 19.50

    Matured on the bone for twelve months, sliced by hand. The beetroot sits for three days in cider vinegar and caraway.

  • Perch fillets from Lake Murten

    CHF 38.50

    Pan-fried in clarified butter, with lemon thyme and mashed potatoes. The fisherman delivers in the morning, so they are available only as long as the catch lasts.

  • Crispy whitefish with sauce tartare

    CHF 34.00

    Thin beer batter made with Fribourg beer, deep-fried in rapeseed oil. Served with green salad, strips of beetroot and pumpkin seed oil.

  • Lamb loin from Mont Vully

    CHF 46.00

    Roasted pink, with bacon-wrapped bean bundles and potato gratin. The jus simmers for two days from the bones of the same animal.

  • Boiled beef with horseradish sauce

    CHF 32.00

    Left in the broth for three hours, which is why it is tender and falls apart. Served with salted potatoes, gherkins and a spoonful of coarse horseradish.

  • Beetroot risotto with Vully cheese

    CHF 27.00

    Beetroot from the Grosses Moos, slowly reduced with vegetable stock and topped with shaved cheese. Also available as a small portion at CHF 19.50.

  • Meringue with double cream

    CHF 13.50

    Dried for two hours at 90 degrees, so it stays soft inside. Served with plums that we preserve ourselves in September.

  • Chasselas Mont Vully, 5 dl

    CHF 29.00

    Dry white wine from the neighbouring vineyard, drunk young. Goes with perch, whitefish and the cheese soup.
