Our guests are “The Truffle Hunters” from Eilenburg, who will provide a rare look behind the scenes of truffle hunting. Guests will learn how local truffles \u2013 especially from Saxony \u2013 are found, the role that specially trained truffle dogs play, and why patience, experience, and respect for nature are crucial. Exciting anecdotes from the field, insights into truffle dog training, and personal stories bring the subject to life. <\/p>\n\n

The evening will be co-hosted by head chef and managing director Olaf Kranz. The culinary highlight is our Kochsternstunden menu “Surf & Bird,” where you will enjoy Saxon truffles\u2014also available as a vegetarian option upon request.
