Meet the Chef Behind Our Wednesday Thai Buffet at Gasthof Untermetzger
Craving a midweek flavor adventure in the heart of Tyrol? Our Wednesday Thai Buffet at Gasthof Untermetzger brings vibrant, house‑prepared Thai tastes to Zell am Ziller—an all‑you‑can‑eat spread from 18:00 for € 23 per person. In this behind‑the‑scenes look, discover the culinary philosophy that shapes the buffet, how it complements our Tyrolean roots, and how to plan your visit.
Why a Thai Buffet in a Traditional Tyrolean Inn?
Gasthof Untermetzger is a traditional 3‑star guesthouse and hotel in the village center of Zell am Ziller. Guests know us for authentic Tyrolean hospitality, cosy rooms in classic alpine style, and convivial guest parlours alongside an ‘à‑la‑carte’ Stube serving regional specialties and international dishes.
That spirit—rooted in tradition yet open to discovery—naturally inspired the Wednesday Thai Buffet. It’s a weekly chance to explore a different culinary world without leaving the warmth of a Tyrolean inn. The result is a friendly, unfussy dining event that sits comfortably beside our regional cuisine: familiar setting, new flavors, house‑prepared with care.
Meet the Chef: Philosophy in the Pan
Behind the buffet is a kitchen team led by our chef whose approach is simple: respect classic techniques, keep flavors clear, and let each dish speak for itself. In Thai cooking, balance matters—think of the interplay of salty, sour, sweet, and heat—so a well‑planned selection can feel both exciting and approachable.
- Focus on balance: Each dish is composed to be distinct yet complementary when enjoyed together.
- House‑prepared quality: The buffet reflects the same care found in our guest parlours and ‘à‑la‑carte’ Stube—cooking done in‑house, with attention to detail.
- Comfort meets curiosity: Dishes are crafted to be inviting for first‑timers while rewarding for seasoned Thai food lovers.
This philosophy ensures the buffet is more than a theme night—it’s a weekly ritual that welcomes everyone at the table.

How Thai Flavors Complement Tyrolean Comfort

- Contrast that works: Thai flavor profiles can refresh the palate after traditional alpine fare.
- Social dining: Buffet style mirrors Tyrolean conviviality—sharing, chatting, tasting little by little.
- Midweek momentum: A Wednesday ritual that keeps the week feeling festive.
The Perfect Midweek Pairing with Your Zillertal Plans
Our location in Zell am Ziller makes planning effortless:
- We’re just 1.4 km from the Rosenalmbahn cable car and the Zillertal Arena, where skiers and snowboarders enjoy 150 km of pistes across 52 lifts with snow‑sure terrain up to 2,500 m.
- The ski bus stops at the front door, reaching the lift in about three minutes, so you can go from pistes to plates with ease.
- After days packed with adventure—on snow in winter or hiking, biking, and climbing in summer—unwind in our new wellness area with sauna and Jacuzzi.
Add in Zell’s family‑friendly highlights—like the 7 km illuminated toboggan run, ski and snowboard schools, and the Zeller Freizeitpark with ice skating, indoor tennis, and bowling—and you’ve got a full day perfectly capped by a relaxed buffet dinner.
