The Herb Pork

A Legend from the Hochwald

How a single dish became part of the story of an entire restaurant.

Dear guests & customers

The Herb Pork –
the end of an era

 

For over twelve years the herb pork stood for everything we care about: meat with a story, from people who know their craft. The herb pork from Metzgerei Leyser in Kempfeld was a promise – and that promise was kept every single time it reached the plate.

Since 2024 that partnership has come to an end. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Metzgerei Leyser – for twelve years of outstanding meat quality, a reliable partnership and a shared commitment to a different way of working with animals and food.

What has changed is the supplier. What has not changed is our standard. Since 2024 we have been using the Hunsrück Straw Pork from Metzgerei Kneppel in Morbach. The animals are raised naturally by the Flesch family in Merscheid and slaughtered locally – with all the hallmarks of good animal husbandry.

Animal welfare, for our wellbeing

Health through species-appropriate husbandry, not medication. Consistently and without exception.
