Tea? Tea? Just Tea! Well, tea it is then! Ailevi Chay Evi (26. March 2016)
You can really feel and see at all places that Baku is not yet fully developed when it comes to tourism. While the seaside boulevard is a lovely place to walk and enjoy yourselves, there are not too many cafés, and once you finally encounter one, you realize the real struggle: English is a language […]
This smells like a Le Méridien: Restaurant Chinar (25. March 2016)
You wonder why this post is called “This smells like a Le Méridien!”? Simply put, apparently it does though, the scent seems to be themed after a Le Méridien according to my travel companion. I just had to laugh so hard, I definitely had to share that statement! Whenever I travel I try to try […]
A great view over Baku: Floor 3 Terrace Garden Restaurant (25. March 2016)
The old city of Baku is absolutely lovely and the small streets are great to get lost – you can’t actually get lost as the city is too small but it feels great to wander around. I randomly passed this place, respectively saw a sign for a rooftop terrace where I figured I should give […]
Tasty breakfast with caring service: Restaurant Mezzo @ Hyatt Regency Baku (25. March 2016)
I was a bit skeptical when it comes to the breakfast at the Mezzo restaurant but I must admit that I was – in the end – positively surprised. The staff is incredibly caring – actually way beyond expectation. There are like four to five waiters while there is approximately the same number of guests […]
A true Italian experience – with flawless service: Restaurant La Cucina di Alice (21. March 2016)
I have heard about La Cucina di Alice a couple of times and I tried to get a table in the evening twice – and failed both times. This time it worked: A table was available! The waiters were very attentive and while being seated I received the menu and was asked if I wanted […]
But …! Definitely no but! Restaurant Aber (19. March 2016)
A couple of months ago I passed the Restaurant Aber (German for “but”) late in the evening and had a drink which was great. And that night I decided to have dinner at the Restaurant Aber the next time, I was in Frankfurt. So I had booked a table for our group a couple of […]
The unattended omelet station: Restaurant am Park @ Sheraton Essen (18. March 2016)
The breakfast buffet in the Sheraton Essen does not differ so much from other Sheraton breakfast buffets really. You get a selection of fresh and pickled vegetables … … yogurts and cereals … … various juices … … bread and even honey from a honey comb … … as well as various jams … … […]
Essen in Essen! Restaurant Gastronomia Officina (17. March 2016)
When you arrive to a city which is called “Essen” (which means “to eat” or “food”) you have somewhat high expectations but then again you are correcting them a bit because Essen does not belong to the “famous” German cities really. You would never find this restaurant as an outsider as it is quite hidden […]
