die Frischekuche - Bad Münstereifel

We hadn't booked and were lucky to get their only free table. This is a beautiful restaurant with very friendly staff and wonderful food. We chose Thai Curry meals and recommended wine to go with them very, very beautiful. Super helpful with the menu, as our German skills did not extend to all clever descriptions! If we were back in Bad Münstereifel, it would definitely be back here.

I arrived at the restaurant which had been closed for a couple days. Because I had read about it here on Tripadvisor and it was well rated I thought I would give it a go. I had a seat at one of several empty tables on the terrace, none of which had any sign saying they were reserved. Within moments a waitress approached me and asked me if I had reserved a table. I said no (of course not, the restaurant had been closed for several days because of broken pipe work), and I was told that in that case unfortunately they had no room. I went to have a very short dinner elsewhere, and when I came back the terrace still had many tables empty. I don't know why I was turned away, but it did not seem to be because the restaurant was so crowded.

We had a very pleasant evening meal in this restaurant, a small place with a beautiful ambience and friendly service. We had lamb and Flieduccine with Chanterelles, both very tasty, and the desert, cheesecake, was delicious.

Both my wife and I are confident that the fresh kitchen will award their number 1 in Bad Münstereifel. The dishes are tasty, made with quality products and presented attractively. Although only a limited number of dishes are offered at any time, they are not simply routine, standard classics. Service is friendly and attentive. In terms of quality and comfort, prices are very reasonable. There is a good selection of wines from the Ahrtal. The fresh kitchen is perhaps not a good choice for families with tired children or people with a tight schedule.

As we were travelling I booked the restaurant a few days ahead of our arrival. Upon arrival there was a table clearly reserved for us. We ordered Pasta with pesto fur lunch, and water as a drink. Both came in relatively short time. The pasta was delicious. It was clearly freshly made out of original ingredients. It smelled good, it looked very attractive, and the portions were of a (more than...) decent size. It tasted so good that I could not stop also eating the leftovers of my wife, who is not such a big eater as I am. The price we had to pay was moderately low. I can recommend this place for anyone visiting Bad Munstereifel for the outlet center, or is just passing by!
