Food,
Memories
From the territory, from the chef, from the mountains, from the seasons...and what you’ll remember. “Simple”, clean and pure.
Here, inside the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz, you’ll find the creature of chef Sven Wassmer, a place where some of Sven’s memories are shared and guests will makes new ones around the chef’s personal interpretation of alpine cuisine. Inside, the restaurant, is dressed up with natural material, warm colors, mixing old and new, furniture with clean and simple shape, white tablecloths and a minimalistic set up of the tables; but more of all an open kitchen showcasing the Memories team at work. Here the philosophy is “less is more”, dishes that are product and seasonal driven. Ingredients comes at 99% from producer that are from the surrounding of the restaurant or Switzerland and grown or breed in ethical ways. A style that plays between classics flavors and innovation, going from a classic combination of meat, potatoes purée and meat sauce or a reinterpretation of the classic Swiss raclette dish; or more innovative dish like pike perch, fermented mushroom sauce, shiokoji cured walnuts and cress.
“Memories are the things you remind of the past or you’ll create and will stays impressed in your mind.”
Personality and classic fuse together to make a unique style that brings into the chef’s world. Where the signature dish, smoked char, burnt cream and pine casting showcase the philosophy of the chef. Ingredient driven the technique is the vehicle to make the product shine. While the kitchen is working the connection is the waitress/waiter that gives you all the attention and explanation needed to drive you into the culinary show. While having a great wine list and wine pairing, it’s also possible to have a alcohol free pairing, because here also the healthy side is take into account. Let them drive into Sven Wassmer world made of wood, rivers, lake, mountains and Memories.
