The Stucki restaurant is one of those places where accuracy and balance are the key words, starting with the elegance marked by the sobriety of the place. A soothing atmosphere allows you to focus on the bold cuisine of Chef Tanja Grandits. With two Michelin stars and a GaultMillau rating of 19 points, the Basel restaurant has become a culinary legend.
German-born Chef Tanja Grandits was awarded the title of “Chef of the Year” in 2014, and in 2020 she has achieved a double win by winning the title again. She amazes with her creativity stimulated by the vegetable world, and considers herself limitless when it comes to combining flavors that she likes to stage monochrome.
