One of the most popular dishes in South Tyrol is meat for sure, as you can find excellent products right on site. Here, we present a dish, that satisfies even the most demanding palates.

For the preparation of this dish we have chosen a fillet, which is for sure the most tender and best piece of bovine meat. With the use of salt, the meat's taste is enhanced in a special way.

The result is surprising. Just try it yourself!
