Date Night

This week we decided to go to a new little Bavarian bar and restaurant called Steins.

It's a quaint spot, not overly large but you escape to another world when you walk inside. It's adorned with floor to ceiling wood paneling, wooden tables, animal furs (not real for those of you that love animals) and old style black and white photographs showing off some lederhosens. It also has a great outdoor area overlooking the Thames which we've enjoyed before when the sun was shining.

Unfortunately there was no sun this evening, replaced by plenty of rain, so we sat inside.

Being Bavarian there is lots of sausage to eat... and pork. Not my most favourite of foods considering I was watching a program one day and it said that pork is a flesh most like human. In any case there are other options and I went for the chicken. 

The main course was average. We've been there before and the tasting platters are the way to go. However we'd never tried any deserts until now. Look what we had;


Yes a big platter of pancake and it just melted in your mouth. Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy in the middle and served with an apple mousse.  I would hate to think how many calories I consumed, but hell it tasted good. 

We did have a few issues with service which was kindly acknowledged by the team there who offered us some complementary schnapps to finish up with.

We'll definately go back again.
