21. July 2012: Restaurant Wackes Weinstube
Authentic and original – that is what the Restaurant Wackes Weinstube is. The place is named after its owner and he makes clear to everyone that he is the owner. But more about that later. We decided to have the menu with four courses (EUR 54.00 per person). As an Amuse Bouche, we got a […]
21. July 2012: Restaurant Kap am Südkai
The Kap am Südkai is located right next to the Rhine shore – and it is stylishly furnished. While inside you feel like in a design studio … … outside you have a nice view onto the Rhine. The beer is good and cheap (0,3L; EUR 2.70). The service is quite friendly but not too […]
21. July 2012: Restaurant Haxenhaus zum Rheingarten
If you want to sit close to the Rhein and enjoy the cheap Gaffel Kölsch beer (0,4L; EUR 3.50) then the Restaurant Haxenhaus zum Rheingarten is definitely the right place to go. The beer is quite good, the prices are absolutely low, the waiter was friendly and up for a joke and the place is […]
20. July 2012: pure bar
A wide selection of different Vodka drinks is offered in the “pure bar” – and they are pretty good. I had a Vodka Wild Berry (EUR 6.50) and a Vodka Maracuja (EUR 6.50). So the drinks are not only good but are also pretty okay in price. The place is pretty nice, the interior is […]
20. July 2012: Restaurant Weinhaus Brungs
The Tarte Flambee with sheep cheese, paprika, olives and spring onions (EUR 10.90) was very thin, aromatic, and well garnished. The main course which was a “grilled salmon with a light saffron honey sauce with papardelle and …” “… a small salad” (EUR 15.90) was good. The salmon was crunchy, the sauce was rich in […]
19. July 2012: Restaurant Früh am Dom
The “Kölscher Teller” which consists of liver sausage, black pudding, bacon, Dutch cheese and potato salad and is served with a rye bread roll, black bread and butter (EUR 10.50) is a typical dish for Cologne. The liver sausage is tasty, the bacon is extremly crunchy (too crunchy, it almost broke my tooth) and the […]
19. Juli 2012: Restaurant Regency Club @Hyatt Regency Cologne
Dinner at the Regency Club Lounge is definitely nice – the dishes changes every evening and there is always a nice selection of sweets … … spicy stuff … … some salad (in this case potato salad) … … and some fresh bread with a selection of different cheeses. The dishes are good and freshly […]
18. July 2012: Restaurant Café Midi
The grilled salmon with mixed salad on house-made lemon vinaigrette and fresh bread (EUR 13.90) was a pleasent surprise. The salmon was fresh and juicy and the lemon vinaigrette was very refreshing. The mixed salad was not too mixed though – it was more different kinds of green salad and a few tomatoes. The service […]
