Eating out is one of my life's great pleasures.
Slipping into something nice, wearing some sparkles. having my hair and face done, feeling pretty and turning one ordinary day into something special.
An evening spent with good company , filled with delicious booze, nosh and a healthy dose of laughter. If that 's not good enough to perk somebody up, I don't know what else will.
FF , my constant date and fellow food -enthusiast , shares my passion for dining out. He already mastered the art of finding odd celebrations . Being discharged from the hospital, passing an exam, surviving a stressful week at work, acquiring a travelling visa , finishing a home renovation project . You name it and we will celebrate it.
This month, I finally received my German citizenship. Another a perfect excuse to splurge on food. So off went to Pospisil.
A Michelin recommended restaurant .
We were greeted by clean, crisp table linens, spotless floor, glistering glasses and cutlery, shiny furnitures and friendly service.
I scrolled my eyes over the short but promising menu written on the blackboard and I knew, I'm in for a treat.
After a toast to another life's milestone, the ''celebration'' became official and
our meal began.
It started of with an amuse-bouce from the kitchen. Delicious fish cake with tartar sauce. It might look and sound simple but the flavors are more complicated than Taylor Swift and Kim Kardasian's feud!
FF orderned pan seared tuna on a bed of avocado tartar, which he wiped clean in no time.
Tonight is indeed my night, two of my favourite foods ; foie gras and quail were being offered an appetiser combo. A dish that both pleases the eyes and tickles the palate.
There's also a generous shavings of truffle on the side. It definitely spruce everything up .
FF's rib eye steak was also perfectly cooked and just as tender.
A generous serving of Spanish red and he was one happy camper.
Our tummies might be bursting in our pants but we want to know if their desserts are just as good as their savouries. So for research's sake, we pick two out of 5 desserts offered.
FF enjoyed a scoop of ice cream served with two Zwetschge filled dumpling, rolling in butter and cinnamon sugar . A classic and delicious regional dessert.
Anything with chocolate is ok with me. Pospisil's white and dark chocolate terrine was bursting with flavours. The chocolates duo, the tangy mango ice cream and sweet-soury berries compliment each other better than any Korean love team. It certainly gave my meal a happy ending
Menu changes monthly.
The spread was different when I went there with work colleagues. It remained just as enticing.
Few of my them ordered an appetiser consist of 4 different and beautiful looking terrines.
I on the other hand, went for another artery clogging, but sinfully delicious foie gras. Perfectly pan seared and served on a bouquet of salad.
We practically order almost everything on the menu.
We practically order almost everything on the menu.
I went for Osso Bucco. Served with pasta. So, so good!
One at the table had a generous and beautifully cooked US flank steak.
While another, went for the cheek.
Two thoroughly enjoyed pan fried fish served on frothy risotto .
While most of the colleagues finished their meal with double expresso.
The rest of the group decided to give our sweet tooth a threat.
What a better way to end a fantastic meal than freshly baked and still warm fluffy pudding, drizzled with silky vanilla sauce?!
A generous portion of white and dark chocolate terrine with mango sorbet perhaps?
Everyone was raving about the food and the fantastic service.
Yup, Pospisil's , you're consistently good and never failed to impress. You just earned yourself some
loyal patrons!
