"Chef Daniel Gottschlich creatively incorporates his "Experience Taste" slogan into his two set menus, from the appetisers to the chocolates, in the form of the six basic tastes – sweet, sour, bitter, salty, fatty and umami. These are prepared using the finest ingredients and with a penchant for plants: "Ox" includes fish and meat; "Klee" is vegetarian. Both come in a six-, eight- or 12-course format. This is imaginative cuisine that draws on regional specialities such asHalve Hahn(a traditional Rhenish sandwich). Another highlight is the "Mackerel" dish, inspired by Caesar salad and featuring a combination of tender yellowtail mackerel, sturgeon caviar, a tangy Reypenaer cheese cream, dots of fruity calamansi gel, and bread crisps with anchovy powder, all served with a fresh and creamy salad dressing. Cool location in the middle Kranhaus 1 building, industrial architecture, a harbour view, plus great design. The relaxed atmosphere is typical of Cologne – lively chatter and lots of laughter. Charming and relaxed service." - Michelin Inspector
