The St. Moritz Gourmet Festival – the first of its kind when it was founded 17 years ago – has become the ‘role model’ for a great number of gastronomic festivals. Not competition, but a special emphasis on a friendly and creative exchange between grand masters of the art of cooking and young talents from all over the world.

The 17th Festival will again be under the auspices of Reto Mathis, the co-founder of the Festival and President of the World Gourmet Club. Star-awarded chefs & icons of international haute cuisine from Germany, Dubai, France, Italy, Austria, Portugal and Switzerland will delight you with their culinary skills. A landmark innovation will be the Festival’s extension to the Upper Engadine area. Besides first-class hotels such as the Kronenhof in Pontresina and the Chesa Guardalej in Champfèr, innovative restaurants and locations will be taking part in the Festival, including the Alpine hotel Muottas Muragl, the Cava of Hotel Steffani in St. Moritz and Mathis Food Affairs on Corviglia.

We look very much forward to lighting gastronomic fireworks for you with the motto ‘culinary stars & icons’ from 1st to 5th February 2010.

Besides: Thanks to attractive special packages offered by our partner hotels, the St. Moritz Gourmet Festival is an experience within everyone’s means – also making it a perfect gift.
