Recipe Chestnut Mousse
Cooking for television is a bit like a tightrope walk. You have the time pressure, the lights in your face – und then happens exactly what is not supposed to happen. During our ORF recordings, we had a day with three shoots in a row. That things do not always go smoothly is almost inevitable.

Out and about with the Nockmobil
Sometimes it is nice to leave the car parked for the day. For a trip to Lake Millstatt, a visit to Spittal, or a walk where the route does not have to lead back to the same starting point. The Nockmobil stop NM 640 is located right outside Landhaus Gritschacher. From there, the Nockmobil takes…
