Aurélien Mettler is 28 years old and has been the first man at the stove since the opening of the Fiescherblick. He completed his apprenticeship at the Essort restaurant in Bern. Most recently, the young top chef worked at “La Maison du Village” in Saint-Aubin Sauges, and before that at the “Sauvage” and Lokal restaurants in Biel and Markus Arnold's “Mister Mori Pop-Up” in Bern. In his kitchen, the chef, who grew up in Matten, uses honest, seasonally changing dishes for his tasting menus. The dishes are influenced by the French food culture of his grandparents from Charente-Maritime, as well as by his culinary travels to Scandinavia, Japan and California. The connection to local producers, hunters and farmers is very important to the young chef. Mettler's dishes are minimalist and at the same time an explosion of flavor.
