Restaurant Pichardts – Le Maison Rouge

Pichardt’s – a restaurant in Tranekær on Langeland

In the heart of the historic castle town of Tranekær, you’ll find Pichardt’s, a family-run restaurant serving Danish-French country cuisine. Here, the focus is on the quality of the ingredients and excellent craftsmanship, and the kitchen works with seasonal produce and draws inspiration from both Danish and French cuisine.

Danish and French country cuisine

At Pichardt’s, you can enjoy rustic dishes rooted in Danish and French country cuisine. The menu might include fresh fish, Danish meat, cheeses and classic desserts. The menu changes with the seasons and the availability of produce, so new dishes are constantly being added. The restaurant prioritises local produce when the quality is right.

Tranekær’s history also plays a part in Pichardt’s cuisine. The inspiration is drawn, amongst other things, from an old cookbook written by the castle chef at Tranekær Castle. The historical principles of simplicity, flavour and making the most of ingredients are interpreted in the restaurant’s own kitchen.
