Unsere neue Wohnung #1 | der Essbereich & Brunch mit den Mädels

Dauerwerbesendung

Sunday brunch. Jetzt wohnen wir schon fast zwei Monate in der neuen Wohnung. Da wir in letzter Zeit sehr viel unterwegs waren, habe ich es nie geschafft, Bilder von der Wohnung zu machen. Außerdem arbeite ich unter der Woche und abends ist das Licht nicht mehr so gut.

Vergangenen Sonntag habe ich meine liebsten Bloggermädls zu einem Sonntagsbrunch eingeladen (perfektes Timing auch um Bilder von dem Essbereich zu machen). Natürlich musste der Tisch auch Blogger-like dekoriert werden ;) Wir hatten so viel zu essen: leckeren Chia Pudding, frische Früchte, Croissants, frische Brötchen (in Bayern sagt man Semmeln ;) ) und Orangensaft (leider habe ich vergessen ein Foto von den leckeren Œuf Norvegiens zu machen).

Wenn wir schon vom Tisch sprechen, kann ich euch endlich Bilder davon zeigen. Da ich super gerne viele Freunde einlade, musste in der neuen Wohnung ein neuer großer Tisch her, noch besser wenn er ausziehbar ist. Glücklicherweise haben wir diesen tollen, massiven Tisch bei Höffner gefunden – 1,80 Meter lang und auf beiden Seiten um einen halben Meter erweiterbar. Perfekt um bis zu 8-10 Freunde einzuladen. Ich finde, dass Preis-Leistung hier einfach stimmt.

Und dann kam die harte Wahl… die Stühle! Eigentlich wollte ich sie in weiß oder transparent, aber mein Freund war dagegen. Letztendlich haben wir uns für die schwarzen Sitzschalen mit bronze-farbenen Beinen entschieden. Ich finde, dass der Material-Mix wunderbar reinpasst. Das coole ist, dass es dieses Stuhl-Modell in verschiedenen Ausführungen gibt, sodass wir sie leicht austauschen können, wenn sie uns nicht mehr gefallen. Jetzt fehlen nur noch zwei Felle für mehr Gemütlichkeit! Wie gefällts euch?

Ich wünsche euch noch einen schönen Sonntag!

Kulm Hotel St. Moritz. And here comes the last post from Switzerland showing you some impressions of the beautiful Kulm Hotel St. Moritz and our celebrations at the Swiss National Day.

The Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is the oldest hotel of St. Moritz and also belongs to the Grand Hotel Kronenhof (which I told you more up here). Kulm Hotel St. Moritz has a lot of acitivities going on the whole year, such as the Festival da Jazz, a gourmet festival, golf tournaments (e.g. where we had the BBQ), concerts and a lot more.

Kulm Hotel THE INTERIOR

Likewise the Grand Hotel Kronenhof the hotel is very cozy and mostly mantained in the old way. Heavy curtains and wallpapers combined to cozy armchairs.

Kulm Hotel THE SPA

I cannot imagine the winter holiday here at the Kulm Hotel. They have one large indoor pool combined with an outdoor pool (which is great in wintertimes), which a beautiful view on the St. Moritz lake. Of course, you can book various spa treatments and have a large wellness area .

Kulm Hotel THE ROOMS

The hotel has 172 rooms and suits, whereas prices start at 535 CHF including half-board. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Kronenhof but got a little sneak peek into the president suite. All rooms are completely different and were designed by Italian interior designer. I can definitely see the Italian taste in here!

Kulm Hotel THE RESTAURANT

We had the pleasure to dine twice at one of their restaurants – the Grand Restaurant. They also have four more – the Gourmet Restaurant the K, Chesa Al Parc (where we had the BBQ on Saturday), The Pizzeria and NITO @ the Sunny Bar.

The Grand Restaurant is one huge dining room where they serve a menu every day. As I said, half-board is included therefore you’ll be spoiled each evening with delicious food.

Our menu:

Poultry consommé Mikado
Sea bass cutlet with barigoule artichokes
Grilled lamp chop with couscous, lamb juice and Raz el Hanout, fried potatoes with onions, sauteed courgettes with basil and olive oil
Champagne soup with berries and strawberry sorbet

Kulm Hotel SWISS NATIONAL DAY

And last but not least, the Swiss National Day. The weekend was great to get dive into Swiss culture. In fact, Switzerland celebrated their National Day on 1st august. The Kulm Hotel St. Moritz decorated the whole Grand Restaurant and build up a huge buffet serving all kinds of Swiss dishes. So delicious! Unfortunately, they had fireworks planend but the woods were way too dry and the fire forest danger too high. All in all, it was a very amusing evening!

Wiesn Madl. These dirndl shots are matching perfectly in between my Switzerland posts. In less than two months the 5th season of Bavaria starts again and to make sure that you’ll find the perfect dirndl in time I’ll start early. Up to now I owned exactly one dirndl which I absolutely love. Especially because my mom made it and I find it classy yet modern. Some pictures of it are up here. There are way too many kitsch dirndln on this planet. So after 4 years it was about time to get myself a second one.

Having an alternative is always good and I fell in love with this simple dirndl in blue and red from S. Oliver. Also, it has the perfect lenght (remember that dirndln should always be AT LEAST knee-lenght, over the knee looks very vulgar). It comes with the blouse, which is great. A lot of time you’ll find the dirndl without blouse and nice ones are quite expensive. Moreover, I absolutely love their Volksfest collection and I am thinking about getting a dirndl jacket too.

One more tipp for you is to wear flat shoes. No matter how beautiful a dirndl looks with heels you’ll die spending a day on the Wiesn. Especially when the atmosphere is good and you’ll start dancing on the benches which can be very slippery!

Wish you a wonderful day!

A gourmet weekend in the Engadin | Part II – Golf BBQ, Corvatsch & gourmet summit

by VickySwitzerland, Travel

FRIDAY. Friday started with a quick breakfast at the awesome at the Grand Hotel Kronenhof (of course, we woke up too late to have breakfast longer). The nature around St. Moritz and Pontresina is way to beautiful not to discover. We chose the mountain railway Corvatsch and went all the way up. Unfortunately, the sight was way to blurry to be able to spot the 5 lakes landscape of the Engadin.

While the golf players and other journalists were already playing at the Golf tournament Coupe Kulm et Kronenhof at the Chesa al Parc we joined them for the BBQ – delicious burgers and prawn skewers!

SATURDAY. Early in the morning we took off for hiking. On the program was the gourmet summit at the Panorama restaurant on the Piz Nair. Of course, there were mountain railways all up to the summit but we took the harder way (also, a little workout was needed after so much food those days).

The gourmet summit including a four-course-menu was prepared of the prestigious chefs Fabrizio Piantanida of the Grand Hotel Kronenhof, Hans Nussbaumer of the Kulm Hotel St. Moritz and Erwin Koch, chef of the Panorama-Restaurants.

Our menu was:

Marinate lake trout from Sils
S-chanf quail consommé with julienne vegetables
braised rump of beef “Bergeller style”, polenta bramata, summer vegetables
Engadine sour cream pudding with blueberries and Engadine slice

… and back down to the valley. This time with the railway!

Red ginham. Just in time for the weekend here’s a new easy travelling look from Switzerland. I’ve recently re-found this red gingham dress in the back of my wardrobe. I love the cut but the quality is not so good and polyester is the worst in summer time. I’ve paired it to my beloved espadrilles from La Palmerie.

Wish you a wonderful day!
