Le Gourmet (Heidelberg)

Beautiful hotel on the slopes of Heidelberg's valley, a short walk from the central river, serving some very pleasing dishes

This was a lovely little place to visit a stone throw up the hill from the Necker river of Heidelberg.  The hotel is exceedingly homely with two bubbly drinks served to each arriving guest whilst sat down at reception. The restaruant was made for couples and done exceedingly well with old- fashioned Germanic décor and candle lit areas.  All the dishes were skillfully and carefully prepared and the knock out dishes were the slow-cooked hen’s egg with macaroni twirl, bacon consommé and pork crisp on top (absolutely special) and the giant after eight chocolate (with refined and clarified mint gel) to go with the coffee cream mousse.  Unfortunately all other dishes were pleasant but not enough special enough to be truly remembered.  However, all in all this was a very pleasant meal and you are in very good hands here.
