Description

Everyday life out...Austria in! With this in mind, see you soon at the unique restaurant on beautiful Lake Zug!

Felix Franz has opened his own restaurant in the business metropolis of Zug. The former teacher at the Swiss Hotel Management School in Lucerne and restaurant manager at the Hotel Montana in Lucerne celebrates Austrian hospitality in the "Kaiser Franz" with his staff, which is not only well received by Zug's moneyed aristocracy and stressed business people.

"Perhaps we Austrians really are born hosts," says Felix Franz, the new host at the former Hotel Rössli in Zug. In just 10 days in 2000, the Hagenbuch company from Oberlunkhofen transformed the upscale eatery in the center of Zug into the "Restaurant zum Kaiser Franz im Rössl": The name is not arrogance, but understatement: both the last emperor of the Danube monarchy and the new boss of the "Rössli" are called Franz. And all it took was a few brushstrokes to change the inn sign from Rössli to "Rössl".

"Austrian hospitality is very popular with the Swiss," says the new boss. "The desserts are particularly popular," says Swiss sous-chef Regina Portmann appreciatively. This is precisely why specialties such as "Kaiserschmarr'n" and "Palatschinken" are a must on the menu. "We offer seasonal and international cuisine in an Austrian ambience," says Felix Franz. But local specialties, especially from Lake Zug, are also on the menu.
