From this impressive location high up on the Turmberg, the view over Karlsruhe and the Rhine Valley to the Vosges mountains is magnificent. Add to that tasty tapas-style cuisine – the smaller portions are perfect for sharing and sampling a selection. The food is cooked with quality ingredients, some regional, others Mediterranean. Dishes such as braised ox ribs on a corn cream with chilli or tuna with buttermilk and lime are fun to eat and showcase the skills of chef-patron Sören Anders, who is no stranger to the dining scene. The pared-back, modern interior with its large windows is attractive – tip: Aim to sit side by side so that everyone can enjoy the great view. During the day, small plates are served from the food truck in the courtyard.
