Why fire on a retreat

Food becomes the shared moment.

A rhythm for the day

From the first coffee to the fire-lit dinner, the kitchen follows the programme of your retreat, not the other way round.

Everyone at the same table

Fully vegetarian and generous enough for every guest, whatever they usually eat.

Produce with a story

Menus start at the market and with local growers, so every plate tastes of the place you're in.

From the long table

Nobody gives anything up. Nobody gets left out. Decades in professional kitchens, one conviction: vegetables belong centre stage at the fire, and everyone belongs at the same table, wherever in the world it's laid.Georg Bauch · MR. BELLY
