Blauer Konig - Cologne

Pasta in truffle mushroom cream and a salad. Friendly people. Good wine. Warm atmosphere. Music... All...

What a cosy corner restaurant with families from around the market place (with giant playground! enjoying French-inspired cuisine at very reasonable prices! We had pasta in truffle mushroom cream followed by homemade crème brûlée! Chef originates from Marocco. A truely underestimated discovery! Will be crowded in a few weeks for sure!

The restaurant was recommended by friends and we were very happy that they did. We had a very nice dinner, everything was prepared with fresh ingredients and it tasted wonderful. We started by sharing a starter of grilled goats cheese with a salad. Perfectly prepared. After that I had a very nice fresh ravioli filled with pumpkin and mascarpone while my girlfriend enjoyed a nice grilled fish with a very tasty risotto. The red house wine I can definitely recommend : . All in all a lovely and very tasty dinner for a very nice price. If you get a chance definitely visit! Do try to make a reservation as it gets quite busy.

Absolute hidden gem, they have a normal menu of pasta and tarte flambee that you can see on the website but don't order anything from that except the goats cheese starter check the weekly menu on the blackboard and the specials page for some of the nicest food of your life. Food always seasonal and nice blend of German traditional with a bit of international creative flair. Always have a nice selection of raviolis on offer which are to die for and always with fresh seasonal fillings, for example Pumpkin in Autumn, Chestnuts in Winter. The menu, interior and service is simple but that just makes it even better and make the quality of the food stand out more. I always take guests to this restaurant and they always want to come back. Nice veggie selection. Always quite interesting meats for the meat eaters. Really reasonable pricing.

Good atmosphere, delicious food, recommended.
