"We have eaten on 02-07 -2022 for the third time with family in the Bistro of the Stadtmühle in Monzingen. We have always eaten well there, but this time I would like to report about it because we liked it particularly well: Appetizer: Poultry Consommé tasted with ginger. We were worried if it was okay. But a positive surprise: The Consommé was neatly degreased, tasted properly for poultry and had only a very delicate touch of ginger aromas, without any sharpness that gave the soup only the final touch. Simple well-made home cooking with pea. Main foods: seafood (Lotte) in cream sauce with vegetable strips and new potatoes. If we hadn't expected to come here, the fish was tender, very tasty and the cream sauce was mild and perfectly tasted; very good bistro kitchen. The portion of new potatoes was good, generous and would have made a hard-working man too. Entrecôte vom Soonwald Rind with herbal butter, onions and roast potatoes. A 300gr steak for 20€. Yeah, where do you find something like that? Soft and juicy. For me it could have been more pink, but my niece liked it so much. She didn't quite make the big portion and I ate the rest of her plate. But the best and most surprising thing was how well both dishes harmonized dry with the 2018 Monzinger Halenberg Riesling Spätlese. Who does not become a Riesling lover here will probably not be happy in heaven; because this splendour simply tears in all prejudices to dry Rieslingen. Perfectly ripened with quite spicy aromas; you want to smell and taste all night. That's what we got until the bottle was empty. And that didn't last very long. And then we just stopped and went to bed? No! We have eaten with great pleasure and fed a 2020 spring cookies Riesling “S” fine. “S” stands for super. Finest sweet-acid game, long mineral finish, really good stuff; so is sinful fun! Another sin: Pommes with Mayo! Must be. Wine map: The wine card is more than neatly equipped with wines from its own production. The two we selected were at least magnificent. What we liked especially well: Very good and attentive service, perhaps not yet100% played on each other but politely without intrusiveness, with a shot of humor and a lot of heart completely without chichi. Very nice and large terrace with comfortable chairs, of which you don't want to get up any more, if next to the Mühlbach so pleasantly pleasing. Very good breakfast next morning; we were best supplied by a very sympathetic lady of Asian origin. We're coming back, of course!"
