Dear guests - Hotel Maria Sils
Dear guests
We are delighted to welcome you to the cosy Stüva Marmoré and its
secluded summer terrace (lunchtime) for some most enjoyable and
indulgent moments. Enjoy a relaxing time in our comfortable, authentic and
original "Engadiner Arvenstube" with Swiss pine wainscoting and an old
soapstone oven or endulge yourself with a light lunch on our flower-adorned
terrace with the Engadine sun warming your heart and reflected in the plate.
Together with his colleagues Cristian Iacomella, Donato Soldarini and Mirco
Raschetti, our head-chef from Chiavenna, Alan Giuriani, aims to bring
uncomplicated, tasty, fresh, authentic, Italian-influenced cuisine to your
plate. The team in the kitchen is supported by our professional and
competent service team.
We continue to follow Konrad Adenauer’s principle of “no experiments!”
However, you may notice that Alan has intentionally introduced a hint of
Asian cuisine into a few dishes, as he worked in Thailand for many years
before finding his way to us.
We have marked the vegetarian dishes in our menu with a "V". We include
cheese in our vegetarian dishes, but not fish or seafood.
What’s more, we couldn’t resist and decided to upgrade the wine cellar
again. You will find great wines, some of which are not so well known, at
interesting prices. You’re in for a treat.
We are very pleased to have you as our guest and we wish you “bun apetit!”

Cordon bleu … a legend
The cordon bleu at Hotel Maria is legendary. Did you know that cordon bleu dates back to an honorary
shipping prize – the "blue ribbon" (cordon bleu) – which was awarded at the beginning of the 20th century
to the fastest passenger ship to complete the East–West passage across the Atlantic? In 1929 and 1933 the
passenger ship "Bremen" won this coveted trophy. After the second record-breaking voyage, the captain
tasked his Swiss head chef with creating a special dish to celebrate the day, preferably something with
cheese. And this is how the dish consisting of meat, ham and cheese now known as cordon bleu came into
being.

All of our 11 cordon bleu options are made using top-class Swiss veal. Prices do not include side
dishes or vegetables.
