26. September 2012: Restaurant Tao

Yet another restaurant with good food in Bonn – started with “Aioli, kimchi and marinated olives with ciabatta” (EUR 5.90). The aioli was very decent, not as intense as garlic usually is. The kimchi (Chinese cabbage) was tasty, the olives were good too. As a second starter, the “mini spring rolls, vegetarian” were served (EUR […]

25. September 2012: Schröder’s Bar

The place is cheap – by all means. The prices are very low (0,5L wheat beer cost EUR 3.00), the place is a bit run-down and you are allowed to smoke inside which is nice if you do – not so much if you do not! The cheeseburger XXL (EUR 4.80) is cheap as well […]

The grilled pork joint (900 grams) with homemade beer sauce, homemade sauerkraut and potato purée (EUR 14.00) looked like it was a lot at first but in the end it was pretty much nothing but a bone. The fries were definitely not outstanding – the meat was good (the little there was). Overall, the dish […]

I have had a lot of carpaccio so far – but this one was definitely at the lower end of the ranking. The Carpaccio (EUR 14.00) was served still frozen, the cheese which they had put on it was definitely not fresh and the sauce came straight from the can too. If you are starving, […]

As simple the name is, as great is the food! I was not expecting anything like that in Bonn to exist! After we had placed our order, we were served a little amuse bouche from the kitchen – a small “salad” made of “mint, salmon, tomatoes and nectarines” – a very refreshing way to start […]

Having high expectations is not always a good idea – as they were only partially fulfilled. The starter – “Tuscan calamari” (grilled baby calamari with gambas, olives, and cherrry tomatoes in a spicy chili sauce and roasted paysan’s bread; EUR 14.90) were definitely delicious. The calamari were not chewy at all, the combination of olives […]

Good drinks for reasonable prices – especially after 11pm (when you get a jumbo drink for the price of e regular one). I had a Planter’s Punch (EUR 7.80) (brown rum, triple sec, lime, lemon, orange, pineapple, grenadine) which was a bit sweet but other than that pretty good and also heavily boozy. The place […]

7. August 2012: Restaurant Der Weinkommissar

I have been to Der Weinkommissar a few days ago and nothing much has changed since then – besides the service which got even worse! The “Fattoria plate” (Parmigiano Reggiano 24 months, biologically produced, prosciutto di parma, fennel salami, fad cheese, pickled tomatoes and olives, aceto balsacimo) for EUR 11.00 is still absolutely tasty. There […]
