We take a close look into the mesmerizing gastronomic experience of this season new restaurant, and they have sure put some thought and love behind its concept.
Embarking on a culinary journey, the enchanting woodlands of the Engadine region find expression within the confines of the Carlton Hotel through an innovative restaurant concept. Leading the charge is Chef Salvatore Frequente hailing from Sicily, and his adept team, set to curate gastronomic delights for guests starting winter 2023/2024. Channeling the essence of Engadine’s nature, the culinary creations promise to be a harmonious blend of regional inspiration. The connection with the region through the ingredients is truly authentic.
When you read the menu, be sure to look out for the Moving Mountains program. This program, a Tschuggen Collection signature philosophy, is basing the culinary experience on five distinct pillars; Move, Play, Nourish, Rest, Give. This combination of pillars is about giving the guests a fun and healthy experience, boosting immune system and providing an anti inflammatory treatment while still staying true to local flavors of the Swiss mountains. One can tell there has also been a lot of science involved crafting these dishes. Complexity in simplicity is a skill set few chefs master, but this combination of nutritional density with deliciousness is one for the books!
After all, the word “restaurant” comes from restoring. As its name implies, the Grand Restaurant takes its “restoration” approach very grand.
The restaurant’s commitment to culinary craftsmanship extends beyond the plate, with an extensive wine list curated to complement each exquisite creation. The sommeliers at Grand Restaurant guide patrons through a selection of the finest Swiss and international wines, creating a harmonious symphony of flavors that resonate throughout the dining experience. There is something for every taste in this wine list!
Guided by the vision of Ticino interior designer Carlo Rampazzi, the restaurant’s ambiance is adorned with stylish furnishings, all crafted from natural materials and bathed in warm light. Expansive windows adorned with natural beige linen curtains seamlessly bring the outdoors into the spacious, open-plan area. Subdued, earthy tones gently guide diners’ focus to the expertly crafted natural ingredients gracing their plates.
The synergy between the culinary concept of Moving Mountains and the aesthetic touches ensures a dining experience that transcends the ordinary. Anticipate a culinary sojourn that not only tantalizes the taste buds but also immerses patrons in a captivating ambiance, promising a feast for the senses.
