Gasthäuser in the countryside usually offer traditional Swiss food at fair prices. I stopped for lunch at Gasthaus Rössli, which proved an excellent choice. The dining room called Stübli is simple and nicely decorated, and quieter than the café side. A huge thumbs up to the tenant lady: smiling, attentive and efficient. It truly was Swiss hospitality at its best. During the lunch the chef also came out to greet the guests much appreciated gesture. As I visited late September the à la carte menu puts focus on venison dishes. As starter I chose the mixed salad with air dried venison sausage. Very tasty, quite generous portion. The main course was Rehpfeffer (kind of venison gulash) served with all the trimmings (red cabbage, homemade spaetzli). Again a generous portion, perfectly prepared and delicious. Fortunately I still had some room left for the refreshing Otti 's dessert vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce and warm chestnuts. For Swiss standards prices remain pleasantly fair, the bill amounted to CHF69. I am looking forward to visiting again.
