10 Questions for Julia Lampe

Even after graduating from hotel management school, I knew that my heart was 100 percent set on the restaurant industry. That’s why I moved from Bavaria to beautiful Switzerland in 2005.

After holding seasonal positions at the Carlton Hotel in St. Moritz and the Morosani Schweizerhof in Davos, I gained experience in various roles within the fine dining sector. I then took on the position of Demi-Chef de Bar at the Sheraton Grand Hotel in Munich and subsequently became manager of the day bar at the Park Hyatt in Zurich. After successfully earning my Sommelier Diploma in 2014, I worked for five years at the Höcklistein Winery in Rapperswil-Jona, where I also realized my long-held dream of owning my own bar and working independently. Since 2017, we have been available throughout Switzerland as a mobile bar and catering service for any type of event.
