Join us on October 8th 2026 for an exclusive Four Hands Dinner at Trattoria dell'Alpe, bringing together the exceptional culinary expertise of Executive Chef Thomas Fischnaller and two-Michelin-starred Chef Benjamin Peifer of Germany’s Restaurant INTENSE.
Combining classic South Tyrolean flavours with Peifer’s Japanese-inspired precision and French technique, the multi-course tasting menu is rooted in a shared respect for seasonality, with each course reflecting the unique identity of both chefs and the traditions that inspire their cooking.
As Executive Chef of COMO Alpina Dolomites, Thomas Fischnaller celebrates the culinary heritage of South Tyrol through seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and refined contemporary techniques. His menus are inspired by the rhythms of the mountains, showcasing exceptional regional produce while embracing a clean, ingredient-led approach to cooking.
Drawing on close relationships with local farmers, cheesemakers and artisans, Fischnaller creates dishes that reflect both the character of the Dolomites and the changing seasons.
