Schote

This fine dining restaurant is housed in a modern building complex by Rüttenscheider Stern U-Bahn station, in the heart of Essen. It is owned by the likeable restaurateur and TV chef Nelson Müller, who whisks diners away on a culinary adventure in the form of a set menu comprising five to seven courses (plus amuse-bouches and petits fours), created in the large open kitchen. With great technical precision, top-notch ingredients are transformed into dishes brimming with bold flavours. The vegetarian "No Meat No Fish" set menu is also available by prior arrangement two days in advance. Staff are happy to recommend the right wine to go with whatever you opt for. The interior is modern yet cosy, and the service is very friendly, attentive and competent. The building is also home to the Müllers auf der Rü brasserie.
