Deux étoiles MICHELIN : une cuisine d’exception. Vaut le détour !
Les meilleurs produits magnifiés par le savoir-faire et l’inspiration d’un chef de talent, qui signe, avec son équipe, des assiettes subtiles et percutantes, parfois très originales.
The location on the Landwehrkanal in lively Kreuzberg, among other restaurants and shops, is indeed special and a draw in itself. Out front is a lovely terrace shielded from the street by a fence covered in plants. Inside, a blend of old and new makes for an attractive setting: old wooden panelling meets chic modern design – the mural by Jim Avignon is a focal point, as is the glass-fronted kitchen. Here, Sebastian Frank conjures up dishes rooted in the culinary traditions of his Austrian homeland with plenty of creativity and an emphasis on sustainability. He uses high-quality ingredients – sourced from the Berlin-Brandenburg region where possible – to produce pared-down dishes, often giving pride of place to vegetables. The almost unspectacular manner in which he sometimes does this is perhaps what makes it so remarkable. With great skill, he finds a way to incorporate his favourite flavours, caraway and celery, again and again. Diners can also look forward to friendly, competent service and interesting wine recommendations.
