Restaurant Torkel

Description:

• The prince owns this charming country inn on the site of an old wine press. It's in the royal vineyards on the outskirts of town; park your car and follow the signs a short distance to a low-lying building. The cuisine, though never accused of being overly imaginative, is satisfying and most filling, and a true regional flavor of central Europe. Seasonal specialties are likely to include veal dishes, filet goulash Stroganoff, freshwater fish in Riesling sauce, and "Torkelsteak." Noodle and rösti dishes are also offered. Wine is available from the royal cellars, including a house variety of the local sparkling wine (Sekt). The menu changes every day, offering only what is fresh at the market.
