A new place in Hornstull...
It's not the first time they've tried a "new place in Hornstull", but I still have to say that they've really made an effort for the customer. The premises have been given an extreme refresh, I hardly recognized myself, and it is noticeable that they are trying to do something different compared to previous activities on the site.
Unfortunately, something is still missing. The soul and the craftsmanship feel absent. The staff absolutely do their best, and so does the kitchen. I took their tasting menu, which could easily have been shared between two people given the generous portions. The food was well-cooked and nicely flavored, but still the feeling that something is missing, and I think it's just the soul.
It is clear that the chef is skilled, but perhaps dreams of cooking his own food with his own flavors. Everything feels a bit stiff and impersonal.
Despite this, three stars for very good prices and a genuine attempt to create something new.
