The Grual Restaurant gets its first MICHELIN Star.
The Grual Restaurant gets its first MICHELIN star.
The restaurant located in the stunning setting of the Lefay Resort & SPA Dolomiti has been awarded with the most celebrated culinary accolade.
An important award has been given to the Grual Restaurant in Pinzolo, designed by Studio Apostoli in 2019 and part of the prestigious Lefay Resort & SPA Dolomiti, also signed by the Studio. Thus, the restaurant led by the talented Executive Chef Matteo Maenza joins the Michelin Guide 2025.
Inspired by an enchanted forest, the Grual Restaurant is named after the mountain that forms the backdrop to the Resort and emphasises Trentino-Alto Adige ingredients sourced from organic and sustainable suppliers.
The wooden backdrops and special wallpapers offer a metaphorical journey through the Trentino forest. The ceiling consists of over fifty micro-lamps simulating fireflies and six hundred suspended metal leaves converging on the central fulcrum of the granite brazier. The atmosphere, thus created, is capable of accompanying guests towards a gourmet tasting experience, conceived according to a menu that emphasises the healthy aspects of food and the principles of sustainable cuisine, including ethics, seasonality and support for local suppliers.
