Breakfast by the window in autumn
Dining

Vegetarian, in Val Fex.

Since 2020 the Chesa Pool kitchen has been entirely vegetarian. Vegetables take centre stage. Herbs and oils set the accents, the season writes the menu. And care in every dish.

The first vegetarian hotel in the Engadine

Morning

The Fex breakfast

A buffet with bread and plaited Zopf from our own bakery, cheese from the region and from nearby Italy, muesli, fruit and fresh smoothies. The herbs in the scrambled eggs come from the garden. From 7.30 to 10 am.

Lunch outdoors
Midday

On the terrace

Vegetarian dishes with a view of the valley. In winter, sheepskins lie on the chairs.

Engadine walnut tart
Afternoon

Afternoon tea

Cakes and tarts from the bakery, alpine teas and coffee. And the Engadine walnut tart: crumbly outside, caramel and walnut within.

Through the window, guests at dinner
Evening

In the parlour

A menu that changes with the season, by candlelight in the old parlour. Open to guests from outside, too.

Fondue in the Chamineda

A small room with a fireplace, reserved for cheese fondue. The fire crackles, the evening grows long.

Grill and jazz in the garden

From noon to 3 pm the vegetarian grill burns in the garden: vegetables, halloumi, fresh salads. Changing musicians play jazz.

A picnic

A packed basket and directions to a quiet spot in the valley. In summer also at sunset, in October beneath golden larches.

Wine being poured
The cellar

Wines from three countries

From Switzerland, Italy and France. We are happy to suggest what suits the dish and the evening.

From the garden

In front of the house grows what the kitchen needs.

Parsley, mint, chives and basil, salads and edible flowers, tended and picked by hand. At breakfast the herbs find their way into the scrambled eggs, the tea and onto buttered bread.

Before your visit

Val Fex is car-free.

By car you can only come as far as Sils. That is why we collect our restaurant guests with the house shuttle, free of charge: at 5.30 pm at the Sils Post bus stop, returning at 8.30 or 9 pm. Please book the ride together with your table, by phone or e-mail. The footpath through the gorge is unlit in the evening.
