29. December 2010: Restaurant Blue Creek
A first Maltese dining experience which can be said to be enjoyable and an absolutely stunning view all over the sea! The Amuse Bouche was a little tower of avocado and prawns. While the prawns were very well-prepared and rich in taste, the avocado was a bit hard but the mixture fit perfect. The salad […]
28. December 2010: Restaurant il-Barri
Real hearty Maltese dishes – and very rich in taste. The Maltese Special Mix is a platter for big eaters offering Maltese rabbit stew, horse stew and quail (EUR 15.40). The starter – offered by the restaurant – is typically Maltese and tasty. It’s typical Maltese crackers, Maltese goat cheese (extremely strong in taste), and […]
27. December 2010: Villa Corinthia @Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa
A major disappointment is the perfect description for the dining experience at the Villa Corinthia at the Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa, Attard, Malta. The Amuse Bouche was a piece of pork sausage on an onion tomato confit – while the confit was tasty and smooth, the pork sausage was pretty regular (actually, not any […]
27. December 2010: Restaurant Aaron’s Kitchen
Good fresh tuna fish – and a lot of average other food describes Aaron’s Kitchen best. The starter brought to us by the kitchen was some kind of garlic bread and chips accompanied by some humus-like sauce. Not bad in combination but nothing close to the real Arabian humus. Fresh mussels from the sea with […]
21. December 2010: Restaurant Amoriba
Chicken and dried tomatoes swimming in oil, stroppy salad, coming right from the refrigerator. Not really what one expects from a chicken salad – although not surprising as usually airport restaurants aren’t the ones being outstanding. Still, the way the salad was made, one could see it wasn’t fresh at all. The chicken and the […]
20. December 2010: Restaurant Bei D’r Tant
Hearty traditional German food and cheap German beer! That is the best way to describe what you get “Bei d’r Tant” (At Auntie’s) – besides a place where you still can smoke and therefore smell a lot like after. The upper floor is not that crowded and you’re not allowed to smoke. The escalope scalloped […]
20. – 21. December 2010: Restaurant Glashaus @Hyatt Regency Hotel Cologne
A huge selection of high quality food – breakfast at the Hyatt Regency in Cologne. The choices are vast. From different kinds of cereals, nuts, dried raisins, yoghurts, … … fresh fruit … … a vast selection of different kinds of breads … … to a selection of meat, cheese, fish, smoked salmon … … […]
19. December 2010: Schälsick Bar @Hyatt Regency Hotel Cologne
Great quality food is the right description for the dishes served in the Schälsick Bar (usually the Glashaus Restaurant, but that was closed that night due to a private event). The bread served is fresh and the selection of spreads is great in taste. The “International Starters Buffet” (EUR 16.50) has a great selection of […]
