28. April 2011: UNI Lounge
The Uni Lounge could be a really nice place but, unfortunately, it has one major problem: The place is pretty small and if there are a lot of people inside (like it happened that night when about 500 people from InterNations.org were there), it gets way too hot – literally speaking. The design is nice […]
28. April 2011: Restaurant Wirtshaus zum Straubinger
The starter salad with roasted pits and pretzel croutons (EUR 6.00) is okay but nothing great really. There is not much sauce and the salad is kind of boring. The only thing which is a bit special and makes it stand out a slight little bit are the pretzel croutons (and not because of the […]
27. April 2011: Lenbach
The Lenbach is the place to go on a Wednesday evening after work (but it’s more a place you’re heading to if your 30 or older). Still, the place is great. The atmosphere is absolutely nice, the rooms are high and there is a lot of marble and it’s just really classy. The crowd is […]
27. April 2011: Restaurant/Club H.E.A.R.T.
The bread was fresh and tasty the truffled cream cheese was good in taste as the taste of truffles was not overwhelming but really tender. The mixture of olive oil, sea salt and fresh basil to dip your bread was also pretty tasty. The tuna tatar (EUR 5.00) was also quite good. It had thin […]
20. April 2011: Restaurant Frank’s Amici
Frank Bergmeyer is the owner of the Restaurant Frank’s Amici which you would assume is an Italian restaurant (amici is Italian for “friends”). But it’s way more than that. But, step by step. We arrived and immediately found a table inside as most people were sitting outside. When we asked to eat something the waitress […]
17. April 2011: Restaurant Galata Kiva
We decided to have a last time Turkish food before leaving Istanbul already again – and we went for the Restaurant Galata Kiva which is located right next to the Galata Tower. And it was a mistake! At first we were considering not going because it looks like a classical tourist place but it looked […]
17. April 2011: Bar in the Restaurant Wisteria
The atmosphere in the restaurant Wisteria is great – you enter through a large entrance made of stone into a patio. The interior is nicely decorated and if you go inside, you find yourself in a stone wall cellar which is modernly decorated. It is mainly a restaurant but we’ve been there for beers only […]
17. April 2011: Restaurant at the Fish Market
The Hamsi (5 TL) is definitely the most recommendable dish you can find in the restaurant at the fish market – it’s a plate full of little grilled fishes which are served with salad and onions and only cost 5 TL. And believe me, the plate is more than enough to actually satisfy your hunger. […]
