Bad Gastein was once known as the Monte Carlo of the Alps. Then the town fell quiet. And perhaps that was precisely its good fortune.
Since the early 2000s, people with vision have been bringing Bad Gastein back to life—not by polishing away its past, but by allowing something new to emerge from it.
You might call them the “Dreamers and Doers of Bad Gastein”: a loose community of creative entrepreneurs, hoteliers, artists, dropouts, newcomers and locals. People who run distinctive, independently owned hotels and businesses with a personal signature—and, in doing so, breathe new life into the town.
One of them is Ike Ikrath, who, together with his wife Evelyn, is behind the Miramonte and Haus Hirt hotels.
Ike speaks with a charming Viennese accent that makes even the most complicated things sound just a little more elegant. When he talks about Bad Gastein, its old grand hotels or the world of hospitality, it quickly becomes clear that personality matters more to him than standardised perfection.

🖤 Yayoi Kusama, the beguiling Japanese artist who was a member of the 1960s avant-garde, disappeared from public view for decades and found global recognition late in life through her polka-dot paintings and mirrored, Instagram-friendly “infinity rooms,” died Aug. 14 at a hospital in Tokyo. She was 97.

With its major Kusama exhibition, held from March 14 to August 2, 2026, Museum Ludwig in Cologne was in fact celebrating its own 50th anniversary. Yet Kusama’s death, just twelve days after the exhibition closed, retrospectively transformed the show into one of the final major tributes to her life’s work and one in whose creation the artist herself had still been actively involved. May she rest in peace.

Now we know: when something really needs to remain secret, even an American president may occasionally travel in a catering vehicle. Apparently, there is something we can learn from our admired colleagues DO & CO Global in this respect as well.

Our model has, admittedly, rarely been called upon for discreet transfers between aircraft. Lobster, Champagne, caviar and other precious cargo, on the other hand, we regularly deliver to our clients quietly and discreetly.

And should, , the occasional passenger need to come along for the ride, there would still be room.
That, too, can remain between us. Discretion is part of the service, after all.

The Finest Evenings of Summer
A garden, a long table, good food and people happy to linger a little longer. That is really all it takes for a perfect summer evening. Perhaps some lobster, chocolate cake and a little sunshine. We will take care of everything else…

Mit großer Betroffenheit haben wir heute die Bilder vom Brand des Sürther Bootshauses gesehen.

Das Bootshaus war für viele Kölnerinnen und Kölner, auch für uns, ein Ort voller Erinnerungen. Familienfeiern, Sommerabende und besondere Begegnungen am Rhein sind untrennbar mit diesem Haus verbunden.

Unser Mitgefühl gilt den Betreibern, dem gesamten Team und allen Menschen, die mit diesem besonderen Ort verbunden sind. Wir wünschen ihnen viel Kraft für die kommende Zeit und hoffen, dass eines Tages ein Neuanfang möglich sein wird.

We have already begun the first weekend of August with many wonderful moments and memorable gatherings.

Whether at family celebrations in our clients’ homes or at birthday parties like this one here at Bistro 48, over the past few days we have once again had the pleasure of accompanying many guests and helping to make their special occasions truly memorable through good food and warm hospitality.

The photograph tells exactly that story. A birthday, a sparkling moment, and friends sharing laughter together.

(By the way, the beautiful birthday cake was created by our friends PRINTEN SCHMITZ ❤️ , with whom we have enjoyed a close partnership for many years.)

Moments like these are not created by great food alone, but above all by the people who come together to share them.

A summer evening at the University of Wuppertal.
People who work together every day took the time to enjoy good conversation, fine food, and an evening together away from the demands of everyday work. After all, the best ideas are often born not in the meeting room, but around a beautifully set table.
Thank you for a wonderful evening and for your trust.

4th of July – A Taste of America’s East Coast in Cologne. 🇺🇸🦞

It’s the little details that make an evening truly memorable: an apéritif in the warm evening sun, relaxed conversations over a glass of wine, freshly cooked lobster, lobster rolls, grilled sweet corn, and beautifully set tables. This year, even the American flag was recreated with fresh berries.

For more than three decades, we have shared a special connection with the East Coast of North America. Our lobsters once came from Maine; today they are sourced from the cold waters of Canada. Many of the recipes we continue to serve today have their roots there—shaped by exceptional ingredients, honest craftsmanship, and a style of hospitality that never needs to be loud.

Perhaps that is why it brings us such great pleasure, year after year, to bring a small piece of this summer tradition to Cologne.

Meet Dr. Moritz Woelk.
Since 2012, he has served as Director of the Museum Schnütgen in Cologne. As an art historian and renowned expert in medieval art, he has a remarkable ability not only to preserve historic masterpieces, but also to reveal their relevance and meaning for contemporary audiences.
Under his leadership, the Museum Schnütgen has evolved into a place where art does not simply reside behind glass cases, but tells stories. Stories about faith, craftsmanship, culture, and the enduring connections that unite people across centuries.
Anyone who has experienced Dr. Woelk during a guided tour, a lecture, or one of his podcasts knows the enthusiasm, knowledge, and passion with which he brings the medieval world to life. His particular gift lies in placing historical works of art within a broader cultural and social context, making their significance for our own time visible and accessible.
For us, working with him is always a privilege. The Museum Schnütgen and Kunsthaus Lempertz are neighbours at Cologne’s Neumarkt, only a few steps apart. In their own unique ways, both institutions contribute to the cultural identity of our city.
We are therefore delighted to regularly provide the culinary accompaniment for distinguished events at the Museum Schnütgen.
Thank you, Dr. Woelk, for your dedication, your passion for art, and for the trust you place in us.
