Introduction
Had to try this restaurant because many gourmets have recommended this house as the best one in northern Germany.
Located in the VW Autostadt, so you can search for a new car too.
Could not decide whether buy an Audi Q7 E-Tron or an Maybach V8 Biturbo.............
So this hotel is one of the very best ones, a small house, very quiet location, rooms with some luxury stuff, for me the best: the SPA with an outdoor pool of 40 meters, in march not very frequented, so I could crowl around with NO disturbance! GREAT!
All of the staff are very friendly but not too servile, more the good attentive style!
The lounge with an open fire and good wines by the glass.
AQUA: we choosed the FULL program, a 9 dishes course, with a lot more from the kitchen.
Again very attentive staff, the Sommelier Herr Runge, a very competent wine host!
As all of my preselected wines were drunken, such as Krug vintage, Ridge Monte Bello, KPK Kirchspiel or a bottle from JAyer we choosed some others.
Herr Runge promised me to get me a little drunk with some other fine bottles, and he really kept his promise! ;-)
The course, I only do announce: caramelized Kalamata olive. sounds like nothing, but you have to try this once!
The best courses for us were: goose lever mousse with essence of pear-caramel, malt and peanut!
Chuck rib " Kagoshima Waygu" with sesame, fermented black salsify, white bitter and red radish.
Dessert: champagne creamsorbet "Edition Ruinart Rose" to kneel down for........., and we asked how they made it, ten minutes later the very good staff handed over a prescription form! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
And, with only eleven tables to serve their gourmet customers, there is no loudness or disturbance if you want to enjoy your course on your own.
Flight 1 - A great wine day at Wolfsburg (7 notes)
The first two wines were enjoyed in the lobby and our fine room.
The rest during our stay at the AQUA.
Closing
Not really favorable to stay a night with a visit of the AQUA over there, but WORTH EVERY SINGLE payed €!
