Carrot balsamic vinegar, aubergine in chocolate cake, kale as a crispy snack: the aufatmen - Naturhotel in Leutasch thinks outside the box when it comes to cooking. The result is an exciting vegan and vegetarian flavour experience. The products for the unusual vegetable cuisine come from the region: fresh vegetables from the Leutasch Valley, aromatic herbs from the mountains and colourful leaves from the garden.
The Olive restaurant on Wiltener Platzl, for example, specialises purely in vegetarian/vegan cuisine. The weekly changing lunch menu with unusual creations is particularly impressive: beetroot risotto with salsa verde - yes, please!
At the Naturhotel Lechlife in Wängle, Tyrol, the motto is: Respect life, respect yourself. That's why there is not only vegan cuisine here, but also vegan drinks, wines and vegan natural cosmetics in the rooms. Vegan cookery courses, Ayurveda, yoga and fasting courses are also on offer.
The Biohotel Holzleitenon the Mieminger Plateau relies entirely on organic products - this applies not only to food and drink, but also to massage and cosmetic products and even cleaning products. In the kitchen, the team focusses on particularly gentle preparation and fresh products: This results in nutritionally conscious and creative dishes with delicious vegan options.
The Biohotel Schweitzer is also located on the sunny Mieminger Plateau and has been a real institution for more than two decades: the hotel was the first certified organic hotel in Europe and is now a place of peace and security. The deep connection with nature is the focus here, which is also reflected in the cuisine: senior chef Maria Schweitzer has specialised in vegetarian, vegan and dietary food and has even been awarded a "Green Toque" for this. Head chef Marko Köller is now continuing her culinary work.
The Biohotel Stillebach*** is located in the idyllic Pitztal valley, nestled in the impressive Tyrolean mountain landscape, where respectful treatment of nature and people is the most important thing: all food is 100 per cent organic - and of course vegan food is also served in the organic restaurant "Grünzeug".
The Bio-Landhaus Seethaler is located in tranquil Thiersee near Kufstein and focuses on 100 per cent pure nature: all ingredients for the varied organic cuisine are from purely organic cultivation, without genetic engineering or pesticides. The food is seasonal and vegetarian and vegan on request.
