The Glass Garden Executive Chef
Simon Wagner
Creativity Meets Perfection
A New Era at The Glass Garden Gourmet Restaurant
Since spring 2024, Simon Wagner, as Executive Chef, has been shaping the culinary direction of the gourmet restaurant The Glass Garden, which has been awarded a Michelin star and four Gault&Millau toques. With his clear, precise signature and high aesthetic standards, he combines first-class product quality with creative refinement.
His culinary journey led the native of Carinthia from the Wachau – where he worked for five years at the legendary Landhaus Bacher – to Switzerland, including the two-star restaurant IGNIV by Andreas Caminada in Bad Ragaz alongside Silvio Germann (Chef of the Year 2023), as well as the three-Michelin-starred Schloss Schauenstein. Here he refined his techniques, developed his distinct aromatic language, and shaped his unmistakable style.
Menu Creations with an Unmistakable Signature
At The Glass Garden, Simon Wagner delights with two menu variations: “1350” and “Vegetarian Mönchstein Menu”, each available as a four- or six-course menu. The product always takes center stage – seasonal, pure, and full of expressive power.
Supported by a well-coordinated service and kitchen team, he combines tradition with a spirit of innovation. For Simon Wagner, the interplay of team spirit, craftsmanship, and respect for the product is the foundation for offering his guests unforgettable moments of culinary delight.
