| - I was only cautiously optimistic walking into Freiburg for the first time, because my vote was for Jacs across the street instead. But you have to try something new once in a while.
The first visit was several months ago, and my second was just a couple weeks ago. The first meal I ate at Freiburg was terrible. A Lamb Doner Kebab sounded really amazing, but the meat was so tough, I couldn't even eat most of it. It was so overcooked, it was more difficult to chew than the worst beef jerky you've ever had. My friend lucked out and ordered the Jägerschnitzel, which was quite good.
The second meal was far better. Amazing, freshly-baked pretzely buns and lots of delicious mustard. A fruity summer cocktail. And Huhn that was perfectly cooked. The Huhn is a plate featuring really delicious chicken, Spätzle and seasonal vegetables. The chicken is a bit salty, which didn't bother me, but something you might want to consider before ordering.
The Cucumber Salad was also great.
The space is beautiful, and they spared no expense on building materials, with wood detail everywhere. The layout is a little awkward, so don't be surprised if you get crammed into a corner somewhere.
The bar is large and has very brightly-lit tappers. Plenty of alcohol and beer to choose from, both local and otherwise. On my first visit, I tried some beer that was recommended for tasting similar to Spotted Cow, and it was very good.
So I'd say that things have improved quite a bit, and I'm feeling quite optimistic about this place.
Looking forward to visiting again.
