We first ate at Restaurant Bareiss in 2018 (click to see that here).  It is the 3-Michelin star restauant under Chef Claus-Peter Lumpp.  He has been here since March of 1992 and it was awarded the third star in 2007 up from the 2 it had held since 1985.  It’s in the Hotel Bareiss which is a massive complex of buildings.  They are closed Mon-Wed but offer lunch as well as dinner Thurs – Sun, which makes reservations for one of the 8 tables a bit easier.  We did the tasting menu at lunch this visit and stayed at their hotel, rather than using the complimentary transportation between it and the other 3 star in the Black Forest.  The dining room had been updated with a new ceiling fixture but there was still a fabulous flower arrangement in the center of the room.  One advantage of lunch is being able to see out the windows that circle the room, into the outside gardens.  The girls working in the room have an updated version of traditional dress while the men wear formal attire.  No music was in the room that held large well spaced double-clothed tables.  Service was as outstanding as the food.  At lunch they offer a shorter lunch menu, the dinner tasting menu(which we got) and a la carte options.  It’s a long meal but well worth the effort of getting there to enjoy it.
