  • ZeitRAUM

    Sankt Kathrein am Offenegg, Austria

    1 Michelin star

    ZeitRAUM earns its Michelin star in an unlikely setting: a wellness hotel in the Styrian hills southeast of Graz, where the kitchen builds a seven-course creative menu around seasonal ingredients and the surrounding landscape. Story cards accompany each dish, the chef presents plates personally, and a cellar of more than 450 wines underpins the room's quiet seriousness. At €€€€, this is destination dining that rewards the detour.
