The end of an era: restaurateurs sell forest locks in Voßwinkel

The end of an era: restaurateurs sell forest locks in Voßwinkel

After 40 years in service of the popular hotel and restaurant Waldschlösschen in Voßwinkel, Claudia and Peter Keitsch draw the line. Due to health problems, including a stroke and the need for kidney transplantation, the restaurateurs have decided to take this difficult step. "It was very difficult for us," admits Peter, who is now looking forward to the quiet retirement and wants to spend more time with his grandchildren. The couple plans to say goodbye to their loyal guests at the end of October and to celebrate the memories that they have collected over four decades.

The successor has already been regulated: Ruby Iqbal and her husband Abner Gill will take over the scepter. After an extensive application phase, the two have emerged directly as the ideal successor. You bring experience from your own restaurant in Möhnese Günne and plan the opening of the forest lock under a new name "Okra Restaurant" in November, with a mix of German and international dishes. "They do it," the outgoing operators are secure and hand over their beloved restaurant in good hands. More Details on this handover can be found here .
