The influence of French cuisine is clear to see in Saarland's restaurants, though there's still plenty of room on the menu for an array of traditional dishes, such as Gefillde, mince-filled potato dumplings, and Geheirade, a casserole made with potatoes and flour dumplings. International cuisine is also well established in Saarland, ensuring that there is a wide range of choice that will suit all tastes. Kunz restaurant
The delicate French-mediterranean cuisine on offer here is rated highly by the Michelin and Gault Millau restaurant guides. The wine list offers gems from the Moselle and Saar vineyards, as well as selections from all over the world. Dining in either the conservatory, the Jakobsstube room or the mediterranean-style gourmet restaurant, you will be well looked after by the friendly and attentive waiting staff.Luise restaurant
As part of the "Angel's am Fruchtmarkt" hotel, this restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Freshness and quality are the watchwords on the menu at the "Luise", where regional specialities sit happily alongside international dishes. The constantly changing daily and weekly specials boards have dishes that are typical for that particular season. In winter for example, you can treat yourself to a Christstollen "Melba", with peach ice cream, raspberry jus and white sauce made with marzipan and rum."Hotellerie Hubertus" hotel restaurants
