Restaurant Stucki - Tanja Grandits

"Stucki by Tanja Grandits" did live up to its 2 Michelin Stars. We visited on a Friday evening in December before Christmas and was the only Michelin star restaurant we could get a table at with short notice.

We had the taster menu with the optional truffle dish added to the mix.

The restaurant is very well laid out and the room we were seated in was sound damped which meant you could have a nice quiet conversation without hearing what others were taking about. There were maybe 4-5 tables in "our" room.

Service was spot on and very tentative through out the 4 hours we went through the taster menu.The waiting time between dishes was close of being spot on which to me is very important as working your way through a tasking menu takes time...

The starters were served by Tanja Grandits herself which was a nice touch. The Osetra Caviar and truffle dishes were served from a trolley by one of the chefs (photos attached) and overseen by two waiting staff to serve us the dishes.

Over all, it was a good experience but I feel it maybe wasn't up to scratch when it comes to a 2 star Michelin Restaurant. This was the 8th Michelin stared restaurant we went to in 2022, and we have had better meals in 1 star restaurants tbh. This doesn't mean it was bad, on the contrary, it was fantastic but in compartment to others we were not too sure.

Will we come back, yes for sure, when opportunity knocks and it's very recommendable.

We took the 15 tram from outside our hotel at the Marriott in Basel and got off right in front of the Restaurant. Reverse order when getting home so could not have been better...
