MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Two Stars: Excellent cooking

It might come as a surprise to find such an outstanding fine dining restaurant in an event venue. The location of the Rhypark congress centre next to the Dreirosenbrücke, by the Rhine, is superb, the interior is chic and modern, and the terrace is wonderful. Then there is the creative cuisine of Pascal Steffen and his team, who serve a surprise menu comprising six, seven, nine or 10 courses, showcasing excellent produce, predominantly from the region – scan the barcode to reveal the ingredients. The food is primarily plant-based (eg the exceptional signature dish "roots garten"), but fish and meat also feature. The chefs take an appealingly pared-down approach, which in no way detracts from the depth of flavour and sophistication of their dishes! Harmonious pairings of fine wines or alcohol-free beverages are available by the glass. Delightfully attentive service courtesy of an adept front-of-house team.
