Meierei im Stadtpark Vienna JUN 2013


Meierei is the "little sister" of the famous two star restaurant Steiereck and located in the same building at the City Park. Food was good as expected but the service was unfortunately really ignorant which was not expected considering that the same family is running a high end gourmet establishment. Hope they were just having a bad day as I still do want to recommend this place.
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 Steak tartare, Lovage mayo and mountain pepper
 
I´m a huge fan of Steak tartare and was satisfied with their version
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Can´t remember what fish this is
 
 
 
 
 Apfelstrudel
 
I was never offered vanilla sauce with my strudel which was a huge disappointment. I think there should be a law in Austria and Germany that states serving Apfelstrudel without whipped cream or vanilla sauce is illegal.
 
 
 
 
Warm Chocolate dumplings with Vanilla ice-cream

La petite Maison Dinner Dubai March 2013

 
 
I´ve wanted to visit La petite Maison for quite some time already after hearing a lot about it. Unfortunately I was disappointed as the food apart from the chocolate mousse was very average and overpriced. I will still though probably give it a second chance for lunch next winter in hope for a better experience.
 
 
Lobster salad
 
 

Carlic snails
 
 

 
 

 
 
 

Warm chocolate mousse and malt ice-cream
This dessert is actually the only reason why I can recommend La petite Maison. All other dishes were very average.
