"We love going out and eating well. “Today we know health presupposes that we can enjoy our food, take time for it, eat without bad conscience and be content with us. – Epikur or Platon the guest rosophy or the diet plan – it is best to philosophize with a delightful meal!” (quoted to Christine Brombach The surroundings of our enjoyable holiday trips should also be scenic for both of us. The Lübeck bay offers all this in excellent form – especially in Ostholstein. So we wanted to salute our lake stay with restaurant visits. In addition to staying with Kevin Fehling, we also wanted to taste Christian Scharer (2 stars and his kitchen. When we planned the trip in January 2014, he was still on the homepage as a chef. It was then Dirk Seiger (1 star ; for the A Rosa hotel group had changed its model. Almost everywhere in their homes “star cuisines” were closed or newly set up. So we could get to know another star chef and his new concept. Travemünde Beach Station is a few steps from the A Rosa Hotel. It is on the right side when you go towards the promenade. The Columbia Hotel is on the other hand. Travemünde therefore has star restaurants in the narrowest area – they are not even close to Baiersbronn or Bergisch Gladbach. When we entered the house, we had to orient ourselves first and ask at the reception for the way to the restaurant. We were kindly led to the entrance and immediately received from the service. The restaurant is on the ground floor. Some tables were already occupied and we were able to choose freely from the remaining places. The tables are generous and offer good conditions for discussions and service. The menu is printed on a large sheet and sealed with a seal. The restaurant manager Ines Effenberger worked very naturally and cordially, as well as her team, which consisted of two more powers this day. Each person was able to provide two guests alone and to arrange all necessary handles. This included: Cover the cutlery, serve drinks to the walk and set and prepare the dishes – often sauces were added at the table. The service was at all times high and exemplary. In all the changes, it is still French cuisine and also (not yet a pure “Fine Dining Concept” (which unfortunately is more and more common in bistro style, loud room acoustics and tight tables. But it will probably be a sommelier (a loss in my eyes will be waived and there will not be so much staff (it's fine for me; because I don’t want to be “observed” at dinner. But the powers radiate joy and the star chef Dirk Seiger visited us at the end of the table: a young sympathetic man with deed and style. The team holds together and delivered a great performance. From the map we selected the tasting menu (129 euros). The wines that are offered open are also on the bow. You can choose individual or take the complete accompaniment (60 euros). The greetings were presented in three arrangements. The dishes tasted very good and were deliciously dressed. We also like when bread is served as a loaf. Dark flour was used here, it reminded of fresh land bread with crusty crust. We tasted good. The first course was under the motto Tartar, meat from the Holsteiner Ochsen, accompanied by Ostseeaal, Red Bete, horseradish. There were dry Moselriesling from Schubert. The components were well seasoned and enjoyed us through the variety. The second gear also convinces by the opposite ingredients: Atlantic lobster, bloodworm, heaven and earth. It is common to combine many surprises at the time, but it also has its charm. From Knipser there were Sauvignon Blanc. The third gang consisted of Waller, Imperialcaviar, Celery and Beurre Blanc. This plate was “classic” in its ingredients and he enjoyed my heart. The Chablis was a tasty addition. The fourth course was the “Bäckchen” – I had already telephoned and inquired with the restaurant manager in advance. We have already eaten several times the specialty bakers and had not been happy with the consistency of the meat (usually infinitely soft and rice-like in the mouth. I can confirm that. This bake was the first one that really tasted delicious to me. My wife still chose an alternative (column jau . The fish was also delicious (we have exchanged and mutual “sampling” and were not “proven” from the local – our conclusion: the piglet has to be tasted. A really successful gang. The Pannobile by Heinrich from a huge doublemagnum bottle was excellent. I am a great “Heinrich Verehrer” since I tried his wines in Vienna years ago and was able to speak to the winemaker in the Cologne wine cellar at Hausmesse himself. The main course was the Bresse Taubenbrust with broccoli, bitter orange and Blue Mountain coffee jus. The meat has an intense taste and is buttery at the same time. It also reminded us of liver aromas. I still like this consistency, but my wife is not so much on this taste (see bakery, but Kalbsbries has always tasted us so far and was often a highlight of the food. The Winzer's flagship consists of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot – a classic Bordeaux Blend. The next course was the classic French cheese. The car is rich and every cheese friend is happy: sheep, goat, cow – soft to firm. The raw milk cheese comes from Waltmann from Erlangen (since I sometimes send a package of Comté or Brie, because you can also buy it on the internet. There was bread and mustard. Again and again the fun to get mature cheese. Late botteld Vintage by Graham ́s sweetened the pleasure. The seventh gang was called head salad. Passion fruit, olive oil and muscovado sugar were placed in a glass bowl and then poured over with the head salad, which was processed into a cream. The waitress gave the tip to take two photos at this gang, because before and after, very different pictures can be seen. In fact, it does not look so advantageous with the green hood, but the gang tasted deliciously through the various aromas in the sauces. There were Taittinger demi sec. The scent recalls ripe fruits, pear, some mango and peach with a subtle vanilla note and has a fine sweetness. Finally, as dessert, raspberry came with Kalamansi, Caramelia chocolate and Thai basil. The portion was lush. But dessert always goes. An ice wine from Kracher formed the accompaniment Den Espresso (3,20€ with fine snacks we did not let ourselves take. A more beautiful evening in Travemünde also ended after 4:30 hours. The restaurant has very high ceilings and a stucco decoration with classic shapes. There is a large lamp on the ceiling. There are large flower patterns on the walls. The tables are generously distributed. But the heat of the day was amazed in the room, because there were probably no functioning air conditioning during this time. In order to prevent the guests from getting air, the staff indirectly ventilates the guest area via opened windows in their own entrance. In the bar area in front of the restaurant, a “Modenschau” was carried out; the applause of the spectators was unfortunately good to hear and partly to watch through the windows in the doors. I assumed perfect cleanliness in this house and found it. The way to the toilet leads on the first floor and can be approached by an elevator. The sanitary facilities are located in the guest room area of the hotel. I don't think this is a happy solution. Ladies and gentlemen's department are side by side. The entrance is spacious and equipped with furniture. The toilet (possibly only one unit is also quite large, but karg (soap, towel equipped, but there is nothing missing. Conclusion The concept has fallen in many parts. The dishes were prepared at a high level. A visit is worthwhile. With the La Belle Epoque, however, I don't think it can compete."

Meine Frau hatte überbackenes Gyros in Metaxasauce, Kinder Fischstäbchen, und ich eine Grillplatte mit Souvlaki und Gyros. Alle Gerichte und jede einzelne Beilage waren auf den Punkt gegart, Fleisch gut gegrillt und dennoch saftig. Gyros kross, wenig Fett, top.

"Vor kurzem war ich mit meiner Familie zum Mittagessen in diesem griechischen Restaurant. Schon beim Betreten des Lokals fiel uns die Sauberkeit auf, alles war sehr gepflegt und einladend. Das Personal war überaus freundlich und zuvorkommend, wir haben uns von Anfang an wohlgefühlt. Die Speisekarte bot eine tolle Auswahl an typisch griechischen Gerichten, und was uns besonders gefiel: Die Qualität des Essens war super. Alles war frisch zubereitet, die Portionen großzügig und geschmacklich ein echtes Highlight. Besonders das Gyros, Bifteki und das Tsatsiki haben uns begeistert. Auch die vegetarischen Optionen waren vielfältig. Wir werden definitiv wiederkommen!"

"When we got there we stood there waiting to be seated for a few minutes until the waiters had passed by us about times without even glancing at us. We then decided to find our own seats, and as everything outside was full or...reserved, we ended up inside. It took about minutes before we got out menus. I asked the waiter if there was anywhere we could sit outside and he tells us that we have to check that ourselves, not in a nice sorry, i'm so busy right now way, but like it should be obvious that he doesn't have time for us. After we've looked at the menus and guessed what we wanted (they were in German) we waited for about minutes without anyone coming to take our order. At this point i see several people leaving outside, and we decide to move out. Most of the tables had a reserved sign on them, but we found one that didn't. We sit down and wait some more. For the first and quickest time all night the waiter comes to us and yells at us that we can't sit there. Very Regina George style. This table was not for unimportant people like us. He follows us back in and we think that we'll finally get to order. Nope. When we sit down he disappears and we are left waiting yet again. When i stood up to leave after another minutes, he finally gets to us. We order, and to this point I still haven't seem him smile. After a while we get our food and it's just a regular pizza. Nothing special about it, it tastes OK. We could just as well have gone and bought a store pizza. I would not recommend this place and I would not go back."

"Ambience very nice, although in winter you should not sit on the cold glass pane. We got the menu on which there were only expensive dishes, on request you got a pizza card. On recommendation we ordered antipasti plates divided for everyone who tasted well. Then the main course came, I must say, a single disaster! Please do not order duck with vegetable supplement! The duck was tough and did not taste, and the vegetables were too al dente and tasted after nothing! The pizza was well-stocked but also only tasted for cheese, which I know differently. All in all, it was too expensive for quality!! We'll try another restaurant next time!"
