"Welch wunderbarer Ort durften wir erleben. Es ging hinauf hinauf hinauf. So ursprünglich, inmitten der wunderbaren Natur , sind wir dankbar diesen Ort gefunden zu haben.Weit blickt man in die Täler . Die Pflaumenknödel waren wie der Ort,einfach himmlisch. Der Kaiserschmarrn köstlich und meine Nudeln wiederholungswürdig. Wir waren willkommen und haben uns ganz ungezwungen mit den Gastwirtsleuten noch länger unterhalten. Einfach wundervoll,rundherum."
