October 3rd is always a wonderful day for me to drive home from Germany. Since it’s not a holiday in Italy I never have to wonder if something might be closed. Moreover, perfect to just run errands. From my last visit I’m bringing you a few new recommendations for restaurants. So what’s new Bozen?
TREE BRASSERIE
Fine cuisine to share in the middle of the old town of Bolzano
Bolzano wins a new restaurant with a modern sharing concept. The new Tree Brasserie in the Parkhotel Mondschein serves classic Italian and French dishes in fine dining style. The portions are intended for sharing. The beef tartare (12€), the vineyard snails á la Bourguignonne (13€) and the schiaccata with Lardo are highly recommended. In summer you can sit beautifully on the terrace in the quiet Parkhotel garden.
The prices are a bit higher here. We also ordered the suckling pig from the Cinta Senese (26€ for four small pieces), which I found very expensive. Here it goes to the menu!
- Michelin star recommendation! Bolzano has a Michelin star again since this year. The Restaurant Claudio Melis is located right next to the Tree Brasserie.

HEINI’S
A new confectionery in Gries
Three new restaurants have opened on Grieser Platz. Two of them are here on the blog. Since the end of September, the new Konditorei Heini has been spoiling its customers with delicious cakes, pastries and everything the sweet heart desires. Of course, a good macchiato or cappuccino is a must. In autumn there are the famous chestnut hearts, which we South Tyroleans abroad always miss.

GRIES13
Lunch at the wine bistro
Right next to the confectionery Heini there is the new WineBistro Gries 13 led by Didi and Sibylle. So far they ran a restaurant together in Tramin, where I worked the first opening month. The restaurant is perfect for a relaxed lunch or a glass of wine after work.
Have fun trying it out. Soon I’ll be back in South Tyrol and provide you with many new tips from home.
