Germany Turkish Dinner (Kiremitte Köfte) At Artistanbul Restaurant In Rodenkirchen

On my ultimate night time in Rodenkirchen I had dinner at Artistanbul Restaurant just around the nook from my inn. I am being lazy. This is what happens whilst you are at the tail-quit of a business journey. You do now not want to go anywhere anymore =)


I first of all idea of consuming on the well-known Zum Treppchen Restaurant but after taking a peek within the restaurant, I discovered it to be a bit too formal and sassy. I actually have had a completely busy 4-day ride in Cologne, Germany with dinners and conferences, so on my final night time I wanted to simply consume in a low-key and more casual location.

The Artistanbul Restaurant around the nook from my inn have caught my eye. It is a completely colorful location, no longer some thing I would pick surely however it's far a more casual alternative than swanky Zum Treppchen and is the first Turkish restaurant in Rodenkirchen. I actually have also been to Istanbul recently and really a whole lot loved my Kavurma dinner so I notion I will try a brand new Turkish dish this time.

While I become perusing the menu a pleasant female vacationer dropped by. She ordered food for do away with. She observed me searching carefully on the menu and broke my concentration by using pronouncing that the food here is very good. Then she delivered that even celebrities come here to devour. She left as quick as she came.

Huh. Oh yeah? Like who're these celebrities?

In my thoughts I concept—Who cares about those celebrities! I choose to watch documentaries and fact indicates anyway, which include Gold Rush and Alaska Frontier on National Geographic and Discovery Channel.

I picked ‘Kiremitte Köfte’ which I learned is ground meat balls stew with veggies together with paprika, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes, and then garnished with cheese on pinnacle.

When the food arrived, it was not love before everything sight for me at all, but I should say that it smelled virtually desirable. The dish came with some rice as well. When I eventually tasted it I can only provide praises. It became delicious. The lady become right, they do serve excellent food right here.

During dinner my attention became drawn as nicely to the posters striking at the wall. They had been all in Turkish language and I then realised that they had been all poster covers of Turkish films. Well, the posters surely looked like VCD covers! For folks who do now not know what VCD's are they are video compact discs. An 80's phenomenon. Just Google it. So maybe the woman meant that the eating place changed into all approximately celebrities and their films? That should be it.

I completed my dinner with my final swig of the Fruh beer and paid cash. In Germany, cash is king. Many bars, restaurants and shops do now not be given credit score playing cards so it's miles continually on hand to hold coins with you everytime.

It became half beyond 21:00 when I walked lower back to my hotel just round the corner. I am going in for an early night time. Maybe I will test my paintings emails in mattress. Or internet till my eyes fall out before calling it a night? Ah nicely, any other finishing of any other enterprise ride.


Posters or VCD covers of Turkish movies.


I did no longer realise the mosaic at the walls of the bar at first however the waitress informed me it is Istanbul. The Bosphorus bridge, the cupola of the Blue Mosque and the Galata Tower.


I am in Germany so I am having a neighborhood beer for dinner.


Kiremitte Kofte or ground meat balls stew in vegies and cheese. This was scrumptious.
