Our first meal at a Michelin-starred restaurant on the 2018 Germany-South/ Alsace wine tour by ombiasy WineTours was at Landhaus Feckl in Ehningen. Since 1987, for 31 years, Owner/ Chef Franz Feckl has been awarded a Michelin star every single year. In terms of comfort, Restaurant Landhaus Feckl has 3 folks in the Michelin Guide 2018, with a special reference to its excellent wine list.
We had a most delicious three-course lunch.
Restaurant Landhaus Feckl
This family-run cozy, rustic-chic Landhaus boasts of an exquisite restaurant. Chef and Owner Franz Feckl is well reputed for his creative ideas to perfectly combine regional Swabian cuisine with cuisines of other regions, i.e. the Mediterranean, Asia, France. His wife Michaela is a charming host.
Franz Feckl started his career as a chef with an apprenticeship at the Jägerhof in Mühldorf am Inn. In 1978, he joined the Tantris team in München for 2 years, first under Star Chef Eckart Witzigmann and later under Star Chef Heinz Winkler, both culinary icons. In 1985, he took over Schloss Höfingen in Leonberg as owner and chef and 2 years later was awared a Michelin star. In 2000, he moved on and opened Landhaus Feckl. There, he continued to be awarded a Michelin star every year for his outstanding cooking ...for 18 years now.
Michelin
Ein MICHELIN Stern: eine Küche voller Finesse – einen Stopp wert! Produkte von ausgesuchter Qualität, unverkennbare Finesse auf dem Teller, auf den Punkt gebrachter Geschmack, ein konstant hohes Niveau bei der Zubereitung.
The Tandem Rambler
...Landhaus Feckl, located in Ehningen, less than 30 km away from Stuttgart is an extraordinary place, not only thanks to their food. A family buisness, this place is ran by people completly devoted to their work, with great passion and commitment. Every guest is treated here not only with great respect but also with kindness which makes all the visitors feel at home. This is the feature we value the most and we are sure that we are not alienated in this opinion. It is a true skill to run such a sophosticated restaurant and serve such a refined food and at the same time make every guest feel at ease, relaxed and so very welcome.
The food served in there is prepared out of fresh, local and seasonal ingredients. The hotel has even a little herb garden on the rooftop. Fine dining at its best!
The staff and the owners of Landhaus Feckl are real professionals, they surely know how to run a buisness, what is a great service and what’s needed to make a restaurant and a hotel extraordinary. They are all very attentive and helpful. I would bet on anything that every guest leaving this place is pleased with their stay as much as we were...

Guided Visit of Burg Hohenzollern
After lunch, en route to Lake Constance, we stopped a Burg Hohenzollern for a guided tour.
The Hohenzollern Castle is the ancestral seat of the Hohenzollern dynasty, from which the German Emperors and kings of Prussia came. The original castle was built in the 11th century, burned down several times, and was finally restored by both branches of the Hohenzollern family in the 19th century. For almost one thousand years it serves as temporary home for the family. It is still owned by the Hohenzollern family and home of Georg Friedrich Prince of Prussia and Sophie Princess of Prussia. The castle sits on a hill high above the town of Hechingen and is visible from afar. Frederick the Great was buried here. After reunification Frederick's casket was moved to Sanssouci in Potsdam and he was finally laid to rest in the terrace of the vineyard of Sanssouci – in the still existing crypt he had built there – in accordance with his will.
