Restaurant Pier 18

About 50 km east from here is Aschaffenburg. The city is at the Main river. That is the same river that runs through Frankfurt.
Ar the banks of the river in an old raft harbour is the Pier 18. A very modern pavillion with lots of glass walls. During the summer month you can sit outside and enjoy the direct contact above the river.
Well, not in Feburary, even when it is much too warm for the season.

The interior of the restaurant is modern and nice. The staff is friendly and competent.

My friend started with a smoked bell pepper soup.
It was tasty and eaten before I could take a photo. A starter was made into a full course, because my friend did not want to eat a main course from the menu. No problems at all to acommodade her wish.
She had a panko crusted prawn taco with pico de gallo salsa, corn tortilla and Asia slaw.


An other of our group went for the Beef Burger with Onion Jam and homemade ketchup. Two had the pork loin in a bacon wrap with dried plums, apple sauce and savoy cabbage and homemade small potato dumplings.


Dessert was lovely.
Almond Friand with a pear sorbet and


Cheesecake with salted caramel on pretzel base.


All food was consumed and the overall feeling was great. We will come again, best in the warmer season to sit outside.
