Gerüchteküche

Awarded by Gault Millau: 3 toques (16 points) | Falstaff: 2 forks

The Gerüchteküche in Gartengasse is a hidden gem for anyone looking to rediscover vegan cuisine. In a quiet courtyard in the heart of Graz, guests are welcomed with a multi-course surprise menu at the highest level. Cooking is exclusively plant-based, featuring ingredients from the region and a keen sense for creative flavors. Each dish tells its own story and presents seasonal products in exciting, often fermented forms.

The evening menu starts for all guests at the same time and is served communally. This creates a special atmosphere that resembles a cultural experience more than a traditional restaurant. The menu sequence varies depending on availability and is deliberately not revealed in advance. Those wishing to partake must reserve in advance and pay upfront. The concept is clear, minimalist, and intentional.

Accompanying the menu, if desired, are carefully selected natural wines or equally exciting non-alcoholic pairings. The service is personal, the ambiance simple yet stylish. The Gerüchteküche is a place for all who value sustainability, craftsmanship, and plant-based cuisine at the highest level.
