The "Favorite" hotel in Mainz is more than just a well-established and successful family business, it has been the gastronomic flagship of the state capital for years and a tireless driver of top culinary quality. With the new head chef Aniello Casalino, the Barth family has engaged a talented chef for the tastefully decorated gourmet restaurant, whose dishes are an imaginative and above all exciting mix of flavors based on classic French "haute cuisine". Sophisticatedly prepared from regional and seasonal products, rounded off here and there with a Mediterranean touch. The foie gras is a revelation of fine creaminess, aromatically dynamized with cherry gel and a truffle vinaigrette that is worth remembering. Aniello Casalino gives the scallop, generously decorated with Imperial caviar, an aromatic boost with a lasting saffron aioli and a great balsamic vinaigrette. Casalino also shows his knack for first-class sauces with the beurre blanc, which ennobles the succulent turbot under the pancetta-tomato crust. A deep truffle jus lends the Parmesan-crusted veal sweetbreads additional aromatic brilliance. The French Burgundy duck is imaginatively presented with spicy nduja cream, pickled Tropea onions, black garlic, nashi pear and refreshing orange jus. Excellent! The well-thought-out wine list leaves little to be desired, and the young service team succeeds brilliantly in providing the discreet presence and unobtrusive attention that make hospitality a feel-good experience.

They were successfully responsible for the gourmet restaurant in the "BollAnts Spa im Park" hotel for many years: he as head chef and she as service manager. Now Philipp and Petra Helzle have taken the plunge into self-employment and opened their first restaurant in a secularized chapel. An architectural gem from the 15th century with a special flair in a unique setting, which also houses a small brewery. An ideal stage for Philipp Helzle's cuisine, which skilfully straddles the line between gourmet staging and home-style cooking. Unagitated sophistication, embedded in precision craftsmanship and aromatic balance, inspired by regional, seasonal and international accents. The kitchen classically arranges its Cesar & Morian salad with roasted nuts, croutons and citrus dressing, while the beef broth is topped with eggnog, ravioli and root vegetables. The marinated slices of roast beef with artichokes, pearl onions artichokes, pearl onions and parmesan, a well thought-out arrangement with different aromatic subtleties ranging from slightly bitter to delicately creamy. It's hard to go past the Wiener Schnitzel, as Philipp Helzle serves the thin veal, perfectly wrapped in airy breadcrumbs, with his handmade Cesar & Morian fries, which taste wonderfully of fresh potatoes.
