Harvest celebration at the Südtiroler Gasthaus restaurants
Autumn brings a rich abundance of local products that inspire our hosts and hostesses to create creative and flavorful dishes. During this season, they invite you to a special gastronomic “Harvest Festival,” which this year puts seeds, nuts, and kernels at the center. These valuable ingredients are transformed with care and creativity into unique compositions. Whether as the main feature on the plate or as a refined side dish – at the “Harvest Festival,” we celebrate the diversity and flavor of autumnal nature in all its facets.
The Harvest Festival likely traces back to Roman traditions and has been celebrated since the 3rd century AD. Depending on the climate zone, the harvest was gathered at different times, which is why there is no fixed date. In the Catholic Church, the Harvest Festival usually falls on the first Sunday of October.
South Tyrolean inns invite you to celebrate the “Harvest Festival” from September until early November – a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the pleasures of autumn.
By the way: Among the autumn delights of the Harvest Festival, we recommend our inn’s own wine “insriGer.” A true must!
Sunday roast in the South Tyrolean inn
Enjoy a special Sunday tradition and sit down together for a much-loved Sunday roast. Indulge in the finest local meats, expertly prepared at a Südtirol Gasthaus restaurant.
Sundays once carried a very special scent. Returning home from church or arriving at your grandparents’ house, you would find the wonderful aroma of a sizzling roast filling every room, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. In those days, meat was precious and usually only served on special occasions like Sundays and holidays. Sunday meals were also a time to socialise and strengthen family bonds. The traditional roast was not just a dish but stood for much more: it symbolised home, family and warmth.
Today, our Südtiroler Gasthaus member restaurants keep this cherished tradition alive with the Sunday roast special. From January to March, they recreate this beloved family ritual, using only regional, seasonal ingredients and locally sourced meats, just as in the past. Whether you order a roast, Sundays in South Tyrol are a unique culinary experience, making it one of the most anticipated days of the week!
By the way, our “insriGs” signature beer pairs perfectly with a hearty Sunday roast or stew. Have you tried it yet?
