Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul alike. John Muir

Healthy Eating at Magic Mountain Country Home

What can be better than all-natural and fresh ingredients in each and every meal we serve at Magic Mountain Country Home? At our country home, we encourage our guests to increase their awareness of the role of nutrition in the pursuit of optimum health. Changing the way we think about eating and food is the key to success.

We do not advocate deprivation or severe restriction, as we know it is not conducive to long term success or a healthy short term solution. All meals are guaranteed to be satisfying and energizing.

As practicing members of the (nternational Slowfood Movementf (www.slowfood.com) we support small scale local farmers and food producers

We bake our own country breads and pastries; we stuff fresh sausages the old-fashioned way (without harmful additives), and we also produce our own bacon and pancetta. We get fresh cow and goat milk from a nearby dairy farm for home-made cheese and yogurt.

Our own organic vegetable-, herb-, and flower gardens provide us and our guests with nature’s bounty.

Breakfast We are passionate about breakfast, and the Magic Mountain breakfast experience is particularly close to our hearts. Time to chat, plan the day in a relaxed manner, and allow yourself to be tempted by such delicacies as savory or sweet omelets (made with farm-fresh eggs from happy chickens), home-made breakfast sausages or bacon, buttermilk pancakes or elegant crab crepes. Accompaniments may include home-baked breads, scones, cinnamon rolls, roasted potatoes with garden vegetables, brazed asparagus with sun-dried tomatoes, or maybe golden fried polenta with maple syrup. Home-made muesli, preserves, fresh fruits, juices, tea, coffee, or cocoa will complete your meal.
Dinner Clean, crisp mountain air and invigorating activities stimulate appetites . . . and that’s something we understand here at Magic Mountain Country Home. We welcome guests to a retreat right here at home, surrounded by our flowers and, weather permitting, a majestic mountain view. You may wish to experience an elegant, candle-light dinner on your verandah, or dine in the garden where local and international specialties, hearty Western barbecues, or simple combinations are particularly enjoyable. Imagination and variety go into every meal, including entrees such as:
T-Bone Steak Tuscan-style (600 grams)	Wiener Schnitzel - An Austrian Classic
Braised Chicken Basque-style	Ragout of Venison and Chorizo
Grilled Mullet French-West Indies style	Backhendl - Roast Chicken Vienna-style
