Cheval Blanc

The meat and sausages come from the family's own butchery, which tells you something about how seriously this Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant takes its sourcing. Tucked into a venerable country inn in rural Bavaria, it turns classic French technique on local game, lamb, and pigeon with a precision that quietly shows off. The duck alone tends to arrive in three preparations. Cordial front-of-house, elegant room, no pretension about it.
