Luxury Castle Restaurant Honoria

The menu of the Restaurant Honoria

To satisfy even the most avid culinary aficionados, we decided to introduce the concept of a unique and delicious tasting menu that draws upon both seasonal and local ingredients. Changing every four months, it is a unique gourmet experience for all. Do not miss this incredibly delicious experience!

Our tasting menu is served for both our hotel and guests from outside only until 19:30 every day. Of course, our complete restaurant a la carte menu where you can find excellent food inspired by Czech cuisine is available to all our guests. The recommended dress code for all our guests at the restaurant is smart casual, during evening hours.

Breakfast is served from 8:00 until 10:30 and the price of breakfast is included in the price of the room for our hotel guest. For non-hotel guests, we charge 440,- CZK for our a la carte menu selection. Guests can enjoy our snack menu from 12:00 until 16:00.

Bon appetit!

Our head chef

Michael Zapalač, Head Chef of restaurant Honoria, Chateau Herálec, Boutique Hotel & Spa by L’Occitane

What brought Michal to cooking, was curiosity! He worked at a place, where according to him they cooked to a high-class standard, so he decided to start learning. His ambition to know more brought him to university, but after five semesters he gave it up: studying and working in the kitchen full time did not come together. As he says frankly, he still enjoys it. He perceives a high gastronomy as a discovery path, often hectic, but madly inspirational.

He came to Chateau Herálec as an experienced chef, but after 2 years he left and collected further experience in Prague, Germany, and the USA. Eventually, he returned to the castle and today he and his team are cooking honest Czech cuisine. He loves French techniques, often laborious recipes. He claims, however, that honesty simply pays off in the kitchen. In our kitchen, we cook from local ingredients, and from our own vegetable and herb gardens, in the greenhouse, or in the field under the granary. We bake our own pastries, cakes, and bread, and Michal would like to give his successor once. Maybe in this beautiful family project, the quack will become a symbol of something that can last for generations.

Like any great chef, Michal is a workaholic. Asked what was the biggest reward for him after a hard day: “Definitely satisfied guests who enjoyed the food we served. Then in the evening, I go sit on my balcony with a bottle of beer and say to myself, “What a great evening!”

Restaurant Honoria Menu

Welcome back! 🙂

Unfortunately, this year we did not get a chance to serve our spring menu, which is sad since we love to work with spring ingredients.

That is why we decided to not deprive you of these ingredients and experience!

So, we took some of our favorite spring ingredients into our fabulous summer menu.

You can be excited about our pork and veal meat, even fresh asparagus, which we will be serving the whole summer. Smoked trout with asparagus salad should be something you should not miss!

I recently talked to a local hunter, who told me, “the game has somehow multiplied in the Vysočina Region”, which is automatically a good sign for us.

We will have delicious and high-quality game for the rest of the year.

Even now during the summer, you can taste how we prepare the Fallow deer back.

So, we have appetizers and main courses solved, do you have space for dessert?

The fruit terrine is exquisite and prepared from my favorite berry fruit. In combination with our home-made yogurt ice cream, it is a “MUST HAVE!”.

I wish you a lovely summer and Bon Appétit!
