Restaurant La Stub, Hôtel Le Parc
La Stub at the four-star Hôtel Le Parc is the kind of winstub — a traditional Alsatian wine-and-food tavern — that reminds you why regional French cuisine became a UNESCO cultural heritage. Dark oak panelling, hand-painted ceramic tiles and a menu anchored in honest, market-driven Alsatian cooking make it the best sit-down meal in Obernai.
What to Order
The choucroute garnie is the benchmark dish: a mound of slow-fermented Alsatian sauerkraut buried under smoked pork belly, Strasbourg sausage, blood sausage and a knuckle of ham, all braised in local Riesling. It is rich, warming and completely non-negotiable on a first visit.
In autumn, the menu pivots to game from the Vosges — venison medallions with spätzle and lingonberry sauce are a regular feature. The cheese trolley arrives loaded with Munster at various stages of ripeness alongside local farm cheeses you won't find outside the region.
The Wine List
The wine list leans almost entirely Alsatian, which is exactly right. Ask the sommelier to guide you through the seven noble grape varieties — a tasting flight of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer from nearby Domaine Bott-Geyl or Domaine Weinbach is a masterclass in the diversity of a single appellation.
The house Pinot Blanc served by the carafe is an affordable, food-friendly starting point if you're not ready to commit to a bottle.
