And after two fantastic courses, we really didn’t need anything else, but marched on, along with the show.
Klassic Apple Strudel (£8) is indeed a classic, and for good reason. It’s always our go to pudding when eating German/Alpine driven food with its layers of soft pastry with lovely, stewed apples, in this case finished with an extra-large boat of vanilla sauce, as the menu read. But that can be translated into custard.
Salted Caramel Brulee (£8) was our final plate of the evening, and it was again another classic, or at least a riff on one. Silky salted caramel crème, topped with torched sugar for some colour and crunch, and a shortbread biscuit for a bit of extra texture, which also acted as a dipping vessel. Personally we would of liked a thicker and more even brulee topping.
After enjoying an evening of great service, fantastic atmosphere, and hearty food, we were ready for home so called an Uber, which is of course the German word for over, as in beyond a certain point, or excessive. So, it felt somewhat ironic after spending a few great hours overindulging in all things German. We drove off knowing that we will 100% be back, as Arnold would say. He’s Austrian, but still. |
