Zimmerbach, France
Au Raisin d'Or
In the wine-growing village of Zimmerbach, Au Raisin d'Or is the kind of Alsatian inn that treats regional tradition as a working framework rather than a decorative theme. A young couple runs the kitchen with a focus on gutsy, no-nonsense fare: presskopf, snails, Heimbach arctic char, braised ham hock, and house-made ice cream. The produce is local, the cooking is wholehearted, and the setting is straight out of a picture-postcard Alsace village.
