"The new place by Tom Wickboldt seems a success. The beautifully arranged interioris much less formal than the „Weisser Salon” make the place appear more Scandinavan in style. The menu, in my opinion, has not changed much. – It still has been a combination of north German cuisine and the tastes of Asia. We chose the four dish set menu, though between the ordered dishes we were served some delicious extras . One of my highlights that evening was ”Island shellfish” haddock served with a decomposed raviolo with tomato filling, artichoke and pieces of foccatia. All this was served with wonderful bisk poured from a container resembling a teapot onto the plate. Another delicious and the most most surprising dish was the „Cordon bleu” of fried sole, served on a creamy potato, veal and asparagus salad. – The dish was incredible, served with velvety cheddar and truffle sauce. So creamy and delicate it was that – being far from a fan of potatoes or veal`s head meat (used in the dish), I enjoyed every mouthful of it. In the same time, my companion was surprised with the combination of ravioli with blood sausage and sturgeon caviar, which she reported as an utmost success. The dessert ”multiwitamin” was great, as well. The amalgam of the sourness of the passionfruit , sweetness of the carrot and orange, turned out very refreshing. What is more, the mashmallow and white chocolate added some sweet notes to the dish making it ideal for a summer evening. The wine selection was very nice, as well, though, the first wine – served with my lobster dish – stemming from the vineyard owned by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, seemed overrated by far. It was very definite and powerful in taste (most probably due to a high alcohol intake) and as for me, it lacked the notes that one might like to follow on the palate. – This was in an absolute contrary to the Porer pinot grigio by Alois Lageder – served with the „Cordon Bleu”. It was surprisingly fruity as for a pinot grigio, with only a hint of minerality. The rose Luberon from the Loire Valley, served with „Island shellfish” was just so so, which , in my opinion , applies to most of rose wine from the Valley of Loire. Definitely worth a visit!"
