Background

The Hide & Seek story

Torn between its Swiss homeland and a longing for distant shores, the Giardino hotels have combined both in an innovative kitchen concept. The food at the Hide & Seek restaurants is neither Swiss cuisine nor international blandness. Depending on its Ticino or Engadine location, each restaurant serves dishes that are inspired by the region and our food concepts arrive on your plate with a sense of international flair. Modern cuisine, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes that offer health-conscious nutrition.
