"The Chef's table, holding up to eighteen people, is on the second floor of the German Gymnasium, an airy space with high vaulted ceilings. Sitting with strangers is a great way to make new friends as they are likely to have the same culinary interests."
"Chef Alex flitted in and out between courses, to describe the dishes he was preparing, and to explain why white asparagus, which are thicker and tastier than their green equivalent, are so special."
"We started with braised white and green asparagus served on a bed of hummus, accompanied by a glass of 2024 Dragonstone Riesling. This was followed by a velvety asparagus soup, in which there was a sliver of cured salmon and thin slices of radish."
"The main course of thick white asparagus and rare beef fillet was served with a delicate garlic and morel sauce, accompanied by a glass of 2022 Haus Klosterberg Pinot Noir."
On May 19, the German Gymnasium will host a special white asparagus dinner at their Chef's Table, led by Executive Chef Alex Thiel. The event includes four courses paired with Austrian and German wines, highlighting the unique characteristics of white asparagus. The menu features dishes like braised asparagus on hummus, velvety asparagus soup with cured salmon, and thick white asparagus with rare beef fillet. Cocktails made with Monkey 47 gin will also be served, enhancing the culinary experience in a historic setting.
