New life in the knight's garden: Raphael and Ramona Braun!

Neuhauser Straße, 78532 Tuttlingen, Deutschland - A fresh wind blows through the knight's garden in Tuttlingen! The young couple Raphael and Ramona Braun, both 34 years old, took over the traditional restaurant and plans great ones. "Raphael brown doesn't do half things. If so, I always give a hundred percent," he says. While Ramona managed the last days of her restaurant in Salem, Raphael prepared everything for the opening on November 1st. The two bring valuable experience from the gastronomy and the preparations are in full swing: basic cleaning, new kitchen and fresh furniture are just a few of the measures that have already been implemented.

a new chapter for the knight's garden

The Brauns, which originally come from Lake Constance, have decided to take the step after years in the catering and event industry. "We work an incredible amount, but deserve little," smiles Raphael, who previously worked as a craftsman and bartender. After a short stay on a cruise ship and the return to Lake Constance, they recently took over two club restaurants in Salem and Owingen. Now they have taken the opportunity to revitalize the knight's garden that looks back on a long tradition.

The Hirsch brewery from Wurmlingen, with which Raphael has been working for five years, gave the lease. "The knight's garden was waiting for me and I was convinced," he says. The large beer garden and the old brewery cellar offer enormous potential. The kitchen now serves well-bourgeois Swabian dishes, burgers and vegetarian alternatives. The opening times are from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Sundays and public holidays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. during Wednesdays. "We want to expand the opening times, but that also depends on the personnel search," explains Braun.

To ensure a seamless transition, it was important to the new tenants to start quickly after the predecessor Thomas Stenger gave up for health reasons. The first changes are already visible: new partitions and furniture create an inviting atmosphere. The beer garden is to be opened in spring, and Raphael already has exciting event ideas in mind. "Let yourself be surprised," he says with a grin. The knight's garden, a historic building from the 18th century, has an eventful history, and the new hosts are ready to breathe new life into him!
