Dominik Hartmann, Restaurant Magdalena Rickenbach bei Schwyz<br> <br> Erstes rein vegetarisches Restaurant in Europa mit 2 Michelin Sternen<br> »Roh, rau, regional« - so bringt Dominik Hartmann seine Philosophie auf den Punkt. Kaum hatte der 30-jährige Küchenchef sein erstes eigenes Restaurant, das Magdalena in Rickenbach oberhalb von Schwyz, im März 2020 zusammen mit seiner Frau Adriana sowie Jungendfreund Marco Appert eröffnet, zwang der coronabedingte Lockdown sogleich zur Schliessung. Trotz dieser widrigen Umstände zu Beginn, gelang das Durchstarten nach der Wiedereröffnung mehr als mit Bravour. Hartmanns Kochkünste und das gastronomische Gesamtkonzept im Magdalena begeisterten derart, dass der Guide Michelin Hartmann (mit 28 Jahren) auf Anhieb – von null an – gleich zwei Sterne verlieh.<br> <br> Der GaultMillau krönte Hartmanns Ausnahmetalent mit der Auszeichnung »Entdeckung des Jahres 2021« und zwei Jahre später »Aufsteiger des Jahres 2023«. Der 30-jährige Shootingstar begeistert mit einer undogmatischen, raffinierten Küche, in dessen Mittelpunkt er das Gemüse stellt. Es ist das erste rein vegetarische Restaurant in Europa, welches mit zwei Michelin Sternen ausgezeichnet wurde. Die Produkte stammen mehrheitlich aus der Umgebung, vieles sogar aus Rickenbach selbst. »Lassen Sie sich überraschen, wie fein unsere Region schmeckt!«, lautet denn auch das Magdalena-Motto.<br> <br> Hartmann absolvierte eine Kochlehre und Ausbildung zum Confiseur. Prägende berufliche Stationen folgten bei Andreas Caminada, zunächst als Commis de Cuisine und anschliessend als Chef de Partie, im Schloss Schauenstein. Bei Fabian Fuchs im Equitable arbeitete er sodann als Sous Chef, bevor der Traum vom eigenen Restaurant sich erfüllte.
