A good, but rather pricey hotel breakfast: Restaurant Amelys @ Le Royal Hotel Luxembourg (2. July 2024)
It’s a good five years ago since I’ve last been to the Amelys and this time it wasn’t for a regular meal during the day but for breakfast since I had stayed at the Le Royal. With EUR 33.00, the breakfast price is on the rather expensive side of things. To be fair, though, the […]
Not sure why this place has such a good rating on the Guide Michelin: Restaurant Le Plëss (1. July 2024)
The Le Plëss has been on my to-do list for quite a while already, and finally it was time to give this place a try. Frankly, I was surprised how empty the place was (even considering the fact that it was a Monday evening). However, after some time here, I must say, I’m not that […]
All in all great, and still the best view over Luxembourg: Restaurant L’Observatoire @ Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal (18. September 2023)
It seems that I end up dining in the same place whenever I’m in Luxembourg – the L’Observatoire. And given the view you have onto Luxembourg City, it’s actually quite understandable. In any case, we decided to have a joint dinner and to share a few plates, so, I went for the “Fatya Africaine (chicken […]
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 […]
