Fine Dining in the Food Department

The location is unusual for a fine dining meal – the Globus Delicatessa department. In the middle of the store shelves filled with the most exquisite delicacies, fruits, vegetables and wines, white-laid tables are waiting for the guests. During the champagne aperitif with delicious nibbles, the last shopping customers left the shop, and the lights were dimmed. After the welcoming words by the store manager, the star of the evening introduces himself – Roger Kalberer.

He looks youthful and yet, at the age of 30, he runs the restaurant of his father "Schlüssel" in Mels, Switzerland today. He was able to hold the 17 GaultMillaut points and the Michelin star.

The four-course menu was terrific with finely balanced flavors. And all the courses were paired with excellent wines – a delight for all the senses. Together with Denise Weibel and other friends at the table, the evening was more than delightful and fun.
