"If you thought all Austrian ski resorts served carb-heavy dishes with lots of potato and cheese, think again. Der Wolf is one of a few mountain huts in Vorarlberg breaking from the norm. The woodsy design pays tribute to the strong tradition of craftsmanship in the area, while the kitchen serves up a wide variety of foods not typically found on the slopes: spicy Indian curry with basmati rice, kale salad with mixed grains and micro-herbs, ham hock and pea soup, and juicy burgers with fat-cut fries. Owner Christian Wolf, a ski instructor in another life, knows what it means to fuel up for a day of skiing and snowboarding on the Arlberg." - Michelle Tchea
