The story
Zur Malerklause in Bescheid anchors a tradition of classical haute cuisine under the direction of chef Hans Georg Lorscheider. His wife Beate oversees service while their son Mario handles the wine list. Ingredients often arrive straight from the estate's herb garden to the kitchen counter. This family-run approach creates a cohesive dining experience rooted in the local landscape.
Guests frequently encounter dishes like glazed pigeon breast served with truffle or lamb cutlets resting on creamed kale. The menu highlights fresh catches such as freshly smoked label rouge salmon presented with fennel salad and bear garlic pesto. For richer moments, the kitchen offers variations of foie gras and challans duck breast accompanied by chanterelles. These preparations emphasize seasonal produce and refined techniques.
Dining extends into the stone vaults of the rock cellar, where Mario Lorscheider selects bottles to complement the food. The venue operates as a sympathetic gasthaus offering pension accommodations for those wishing to stay longer. A dedicated wine cellar houses recommended selections and rare vintages waiting to be opened. The setting balances rustic charm with the high standards of haute cuisine, a distinction noted in the Schlemmer Atlas review.
