The story
Recognized with 2.5 ladles in the 2026 Schlemmer Atlas, Das Erck in Kronau builds its Baden regional cuisine around products sourced directly from their own hunting operations. The kitchen applies straightforward preparation methods that preserve the natural texture of seasonal game. Visitors encounter platters centered on freshly harvested meat served alongside simple vegetable sides.
The restaurant balances a formal five course menu with a rotating selection of Baden tapas and classic brasserie dishes. Diners can navigate between leisurely shared plates and precisely timed multi course sequences depending on their schedule. Every item follows a strict rotation dictated by weekly availability.
Beverage service highlights established vineyards across Baden and the neighboring Pfalz region. The cellar prioritizes crisp whites and structured reds that complement heavy game preparations without overpowering them. Staff guide guests toward pairings that match acidity and body to the richness of the kitchen’s signature plates.
