Kunstbruder Cologne
The restaurant in an art gallery
This place is definitely something special. When you enter the restaurant you are in the middle of an art gallery with tables, chairs and a bar. Kunstbruder is originally a street art gallery but they also opened a restaurant (Kunstbruder Restaurant) where they have combined their passion for art and food, so you will enjoy your dinner among paintings and sculptures.
It's not just the street art, but also the food that reminds me of street food. The menu is a mix of food from all over the world: Asian mango chicken, Irish beef stew, Icelandic cod fillet and Indian samosa is just a small sample of what you can find on the menu. As I like trying new food, I love this place. Last time I was here, I chose Okonomiyaki, a Japanese pancake made out of eggs, cabbage, seaweed, bonita flakes and leek. At first it sounded kind of weird to me but I was positively surprised. It was delicious. You have to come back again anyway, because every dish is so different and it's really hard to decide.
And maybe you won't be leaving just with a full stomach, but also with a nice painting...
