Falstaff Innkeeper of the year 2021
___
«HE WHO WANTS TO EAT WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE ART OF COOKING CANNOT REASONABLY JUDGE THE DISHES THAT ARE SERVED.»

PLATON 428 BC – 348 BC<
Tobias Funke, star chef with Gault Millau points, Executive Chef and Managing Director of the «Gasthaus zur Fernsicht» in Heiden AR, makes Heiden a real culinary hotspot in the region. Under his leadership, however, there is not only gourmet gastronomy offered but also a restaurant with traditional «Swiss Alpine Food», a bar with a cigar lounge, a café in the village or in winter a fondue chalet and an ice rink in the middle of the village with breathtaking views of Lake Constance.
„Cooking is intuition and creativity, but also skill and experience,» Tobias Funke is convinced. Nevertheless, he says: „Cooking doesn’t have to be that difficult!“ and offers cooking courses for small groups. „Of course, the courses can be customised individually. I will not only show you the basics of cooking, but also let you into my personal recipes and my cooking philosophy,“ says Tobias Funke.

Fondue Chalet
By twos, with friends, with your family: Get spoiled with culinary delights and enjoy the special atmosphere of the fondue chalet in Heiden. Whether you are planning a business event, birthday party or Christmas celebration, there are a lot of things possible in the wooden chalet.
The newspaper «Sonntagszeitung» wrote: „… presumably the best fondue chalet in Switzerland.“
Ice Rink Heiden
We will not be operating our ice rink in the 2022/23 season due to the power shortage. Conducting our ice skating operations would be a wrong signal in the current situation. Let’s stick together and solve this challenge together as well.
However, we will not let you take away curling on the Fernsicht property. The curling rinks are operated without electricity on artificial ice. Come by for a glass of mulled wine or fresh chestnuts.
My Gondola
Surprise your guests very special!
Set decorative accents, indoors or outdoors. At home in the garden, or in front of your company. Create an unforgettable highlight at your event and spoil your guests in their own gondola or in a small gondola landscape. However or wherever you use the gondolas, you will certainly create lasting memories for your guests.
