La Table du Gourmet

La Table du Gourmet is the flagship gastronomic restaurant. It champions creative, modern cuisine rooted in a poetic, plant-forward philosophy; the chef describes himself as a "poet of the vegetal" and draws direct inspiration from an exceptional on-site garden. The house built its approach around a 7,000 m² Kobelsberg permaculture garden that supplies fruits, vegetables and aromatic plants, hosts some 350 species—many rare or little-known in France—and functions as both ingredient source and laboratory for aromatic research and continual experimentation. The house is family-run: the chef works alongside his sister Fabienne, director of the starred table, and his wife Anne, responsible for accommodations and the Winstub; the restaurant holds one Michelin star. The dining rooms are poetic, design-led spaces that aim to surprise and delight; the venue sits within the charm and energy of historic Riquewihr, a village the chef chose more than forty years ago. The overall vibe is intimate, aesthetic and rooted in simplicity and natural wonder. The cuisine is creative and modern, strongly plant-focused; dishes are experimental and seasonal, reflecting a farm-to-table approach with an emphasis on aromatic exploration. Jean‑Luc Brendel (Chef). Specialties include plant-forward creative tasting menus, precise Alsace wine pairings by Anne Humbrecht and Sunday garden visits followed by plant-extraction tastings.
