The story

Auberge du Parc Carola – Modern Cuisine in Ribeauvillé, France

A bucolic oasis on the Alsace Wine Route

At the edge of Ribeauvillé, on the Route des Vins d'Alsace, Auberge du Parc Carola sits quietly beside the Carola Springs. The setting is a pocket of calm within the Parc des Sources Carola – a green refuge that feels worlds away from the tourist bustle of the village. The restaurant’s sober, intimate dining room and outdoor seating invite guests to slow down, whether for a business lunch, a tête-à-tête dinner, or a family gathering.

Michaela Peters and Laurent Pellegrini

The kitchen is run by Michaela Peters, a former Michelin-starred chef from Le Rendez-vous de Chasse in Colmar, and Laurent Pellegrini, a chef of many talents. Together they practice what the restaurant calls “authentic cuisine” – cooking stripped of pretence, driven by taste and technical mastery. Their shared passion is evident in every plate: modern cuisine that is exceptionally bright and creative, yet without artifice.

A dining experience rooted in place

The menu changes with the seasons, drawing on the rich larder of Alsace. Lunch and dinner are served in a calm, unhurried atmosphere. The restaurant’s approach has earned it a Bib Gourmand in 2019 from the Michelin Guide, and more recently a Michelin Recommended distinction for 2026 – a testament to the consistent quality and honest hospitality that define this address.

For those seeking modern cuisine in a setting that feels both elegant and welcoming, Auberge du Parc Carola delivers precisely that. A quiet, memorable stop on the wine route.
