Combining the industrial age with modern and contemporary design, the Casino Zollverein restaurant is an original venue with a menu to match

The Casino Zollverein is an emblematic landmark of the German city of Essen in the western province of Nordrhein Westfalia, and its international restaurant is proving to be one of the most talked about. The Casino has been built on what was once the largest mine in the area- the Zollverein- which was once considered to be one of the most beautiful mines in the world , and has managed to preserve the Bauhaus architecture that has fascinated and impressed many a visitor. The restaurant at the Casino Zollverein is a highly acclaimed gastronomical establishment and the quality of its cuisine is in keeping with the stature if it’s setting. Based in the impressively large compressor hall with its 6 metre high concrete piers, the design combines both industrial pieces with contemporary luxury. The international menu is of a high standard and includes some fantastic dishes with starters such as marinated tuna with sesame and coriander with a herb salad and wasabi or ostrich with pretzel chips and misuna salad, mains like duck breast with lavender honey, pumpkin and prune ragout and oriental cous cous or saddle of venison gratinated with macadamia served with a strudel of red cabbage and blackberry and cassis jus. Not forgetting its roots, traditional miners food is also on offer with the likes of knuckle of lamb with baked semolina.The summer garden is a relaxing place to dine during the warmer months, and the backdrop of the mine amongst the tranquil greenery is an unusual yet calming scene. The Casino Zollverein is truly a one off in every sense of the word.
