Das Fegefeuer

During a weekend visit to the wonderful city of Muenster we discovered this medieval/viking style restaurant, just a few steps outside the inner city. It was definitely the highlight of our food experience, besides the sightseeing, which in itself was great. You are welcomed by...friendly people, dressed in middle age attire, who very entertainingly guide you through the menu, ranging from various kinds of mead for drinks, along various meat dishes they even have moose steaks), but also sporting extraordinarily well composed vegetarian dishes. My wife and I had two different vegetarian meals, which both were just excellent. Mine was a hollowed turnip cabbage filled with pasta-style prepared carrot strips in a creamy sauce on a bed of delicious mashed beetroot, and alongside there were slices of smoked tofu wrapped in napkin dumpling dough. JUST wonderful. My wife's was grilled caramelized chicory with sides of baked pumpkin and sweet potato dices along with a wonderful beetroot sauce and a great garden salad. our dishes were so rich and opulent that we had to pass on the dessert, but we heard from neighboring tables that those were delicious as well. The atmosphere was absolutely great, of course if one is expecting silence at dinner this would be the wrong place. One little hint for beer drinkers, the beers they had were a little too sweet for our palate, very much on the malt side, but that was just our taste. So, all in all: GREAT, worth a side trip!

The style of the restaurant is entirely middle-ages. The personnel is both dressed and handling like this. Which makes a visit to this restaurant very special and worthy. The food is good value for money, not you allday dishes and menu. Good drinks and a...lot of fun!
