In chef Thomas Dorfer’s timeless dishes, first-class seasonal products play a leading role. Whether it’s fish, vegetables, poultry, or meat: Thomas only buys from the best local and international suppliers. He’s not a purist who’s obsessed with an ingredient’s origin: it’s the quality and taste that matter most. Re-imagining Austrian classics, one of Dorfer’s signature dishes is raviolo with boiled beef. In addition, you can always find Lisl Wagner Bacher’s Evergreen (baked egg with caviar) on Landhaus Bacher’s menu. The hotel restaurant also offers a separate vegetarian menu, which is just as deliciously prepared as the options with animal products. Meet cosmopolitan cuisine at its best.

Landhaus Bacher is located in Mautern, Wachau. Being a UNESCO World Heritage Region, this area near the Danube river offers a truly picturesque landscape. The striking scenery is home to many historical towns and provides a wealth of art-historical treasures for you to explore. But Wachau is also one of the world’s greatest white-wine regions. Conveniently situated at a one-hour distance from Austria’s capital city, Vienna, Mautern is the ideal starting point for your excursion or day trip. You can explore both banks of the Danube, or bike along the Danube Bike Path combined with a Danube ferry cruise.
