rætia

A new Gasthaus in the middle of Jenins, between the vineyards and the village square: Bündner cooking with a few detours across the Alps, wine from the neighbours and beer on tap.

rætia wants to be the kind of Gasthaus you simply like going to – for lunch, a beer or a glass of wine after work, or an evening when nobody feels like cooking. The kitchen starts in Graubünden and wanders from there: Plain in Pigna with a crisp crust, a Kalbsbrühe with Salsizknödel, Hirschpfeffer with Spätzli in autumn, or a Wiener Schnitzel as a nod to the neighbours beyond the Rätikon.

At lunch there is the full menu plus a changing lunch special; in the evening, the full menu or a set menu of up to four courses. Most of the wine comes from the Bündner Herrschaft. Benjamin Schönbauer and Victoria Kofler run the front of house, with Constantin Kocher and Timothé Moreau in the kitchen. There is always a vegetarian dish and a children's menu, and the house takes bookings for groups and celebrations.

Best for: a relaxed Bündner lunch or dinner with a glass of Herrschaft wine.
