Luxembourg City (LU)
Looking better than it is – somehow, a bit hyped and rated too high: Restaurant Terra Steakhouse Kirchberg (5. July 2023)
It’s rather hard to find a restaurant, which is still open at around 3.30pm and serves food. Luckily, there was one a bit away from the city centre of Luxembourg. After a short cab ride, it was finally time to get something to eat. I think we disturbed the crew during their break (we had […]
Excellent service but mediocre overall: Restaurant SixSeven (20. January 2023)
The SixSeven is an interesting combination, since it’s basically a bar (called ‘Six’) on the 6th floor, and a restaurant (called ‘Seven’) on the 7th floor. It is in thus far nice in terms of atmosphere that you have a view over the city of Luxembourg. However, when we talk about ‘pretty inside’, I must […]
Decent but far from exceptional: Restaurant Le Strogoff (19. January 2023)
There are quite a couple of options on the menu in the Le Strogoff, which makes picking something not really that easy. Hence, we decided to go for a selection of things to share with the “Toscana board” (EUR 23.00) and a “smoked burrata” (EUR 9.00). The selection of cold cuts and cheese is rather […]
Decent but not exquisite breakfast with a view: Restaurant L’Observatoire @ Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal (12. September 2022)
The L’Observatoire is not only a nice bar, but it’s also the place where the breakfast for the hotel guests is served. So, it’s very multi-functional, which is a smart use of a very lovely place. The “American breakfast” (EUR 32.00) offers everything you need and want in good quality. Frankly, it’s not the most […]
Unfortunately, quite of a disappointment when looking for soul food: Restaurant Mamacita (11. September 2022)
Finding a restaurant which is open on a Sunday evening is not as easy as I had expected. Well, of course, there are quite a few tourist traps, but I tried to avoid those and was looking for hidden gems, for recommendations, for the places you would not find easily. And while there were a […]
An amazing view over Luxembourg: Restaurant L’Observatoire @ Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal (11. September 2022)
I was absolutely starving after a 4+ hours drive to Luxembourg and ended up eating in the rooftop restaurant of the hotel. There wasn’t too big a selection in the afternoon, so I went for something hearty, i.e., the “Mu Burger (home-made burger bun, relish sauce, BBQ sauce, bacon, cheddar, candied and crispy onions, tomato, […]
So promising yet so disappointing: Restaurant Amélys (9. June 2019)
Usually, I’n not a fan of hotel restaurants if it is not the hotel I’m staying at but on a Sunday night in Luxembourg City, it is rather difficult to find something which is open and not called McDonalds or Burger King and the Amélys was open and recommended by the Guide Michelin 2019 as […]
More or less average and lacking a surprising element: Restaurant La Bergamote (8. June 2019)
The “La Bergamote” was also a recommendation of the guide Michelin app among the ‘Bib Gourmand’ restaurants. Now, I’m not entirely sure how it ended up there. The whole thing started with the fact that the place is not very atmospheric and is more like a “get many people through” restaurant. However, I had hope […]
