Hippocampus - Munich

I explored the hippocampus while browsing the travel tip Buchl des Feinschmeckers. After a subsequent look at the HP, I reserved a table. When you arrive like us with the U 4, stop Prinzregenten Platz, there are just a few steps to the restaurant. We were kindly greeted, the jackets were taken off, and then we were led to the table. What I like particularly well here is the generous distance between the tables. White tablecloths, glittering silver cutlery, a beautiful floral cutlery and a burning candle. With its marble floor, the dark semi-high wall panelling and the dimmed light, the guest room has a casual yet noble atmosphere. One of the two chiefs, Sergio Antiaco, and two employees are responsible for the service. Hr. Antiaco has the rare talent to give you the feeling that you've known each other for ever, even though you're here for the first time. Always a casual touch on the lips that made us smile. And also the waiter, who primarily cared for us, determined by his unobstructed way, with him acting perfectly professionally. The menus were handed to us and asked for a drink request. After we didn't know what to eat, we first ordered a mineral water S.P. 1 l. € 8.20 In addition to an extremely interesting 4 gear menu for € 52, the card offers a small, fine selection of delicacies that does not make the choice easy. Finally, we decided to: 2 x roasted scallop on Red Bete Cream with vanilla flavour and potato Majoran Cannelloncini € 15.80 1 x beef broth with Mozzarella Basilikum Raviolini € 11.50 for Schatzl 2 x Fried sea tuft fillet on potato asparagus Roulade with dijonsenf sauce € 26.50 In the wine card I stayed on the first side. Stand there a Friancacorta Rosé Mirabella € 61, . In my eyes a worthy companion for our menu. Together with the mineral water we received a basket with airy Focaccia and dark olive bread as well as a bowl of fresh cheese foam. The waiter came with the spumante, a wine cooler with lots of ice cream and two glasses. Carefully he filled some ice into the glasses and made it circle in until the glasses were properly cooled. I praise that! A sip to cost, after a biting nap of sweetheart he gave both glasses to a third full and said that he deliberately doesn't mind much to get the freshness and prefers more often what he always did at the right time. Lauwarm and flattering the palate, that was the right thing. The appetizer barely toss! The creamy Red Bete fruity and undefeated, wonderful to the Jacobs mussels. The highlight of the Cannelloncini, which dept as a crispy-fried Wan Tan rolls, is the most delicious potato filling with the subtle majoran flavor. Since I like to eat slowly to taste every bite. At the soup I was allowed to taste a spoon and found both the broth first-class and the filling of the ravioli. The dough is thin, so that it was easy to share with the spoon. A fool? Yeah. Time to go through. The navy was fried at the point and tasted heavenly with the sauce, which made a hint of mustard shimmer but did not dominate the fish. And, of course, the asparagus was also so cooked that he had a slight bite. The potato roulade rounded off the whole. But stop – there was something else. Cross over the fish draped lay green chives similar rods: Barba di Frate, to German monks bart from Tuscany. What an unexpected, rare taste experience. Chapeau! The highlight of a successful evening is always the dessert for me. And although there were “only” four to choose from, I couldn’t decide. The chocolate cake with mascara heart on Rhabarbersalat with daily zuccoto sounded as tempting as Ricotta Vanille Cannolo on fresh strawberries with lemon foam and strawberry sorce. I was close to throwing a coin : but then for the sake of simplicity I joined my treasure and ordered the latter € 9.50 . What I got then lets myself get into the swarm when writing, and the superlatives are gradually going out. Only so much, it was a taste bud firework par excellence! I'd have put myself in the ricotta cream alone and never come out. I would have liked to upload a photo, but unfortunately it has eroded for mistake: and now please another espresso and once as a macchiato € 3.30 . Together with an Etagère homemade cantuccini came two espressi, so hot that almost the lip sticks to the cup : there was a grappa of the very first kindness on the house. A long, steep staircase leads to the toilets. Conclusion: It's best to be back tomorrow! It was just fun. And the price? Forty-five dogs are not a cardboard stalk, but for the bids I found him justified, and what is cheap in Munich when looking for quality? Cosimo Ruggiero is not immersed in its kitchen, but offers snorkelless cuisine with first-class products. Friends of Italian cuisine far from Pizza Co. will definitely get their costs here.

Extremely good, finely prepared Italian food in a perfectly authentic atmosphere. Here is not only eating a pleasure also the service is very good and accommodating.

A wonderful place to enjoy a beautiful evening with great food with great service.

For over 2 years we have been enjoying and regularly visit this famous Italian restaurant. Actually, it's far more than a tribal Italian. It is first the extraordinary cuisine, which is always convinced and enthusiastic. Clearly fresh, seasonal quality products with a lot of passion in the kitchen are created and carefully prepared by Cosimo Ruggiero and his team. The host, Sergio Artiaco and his service team will also be able to create a very professional, but also family atmosphere that makes a visit to the restaurant an experience. The elegance in the interior as well as the chic, well maintained ambience of the very inviting terrace complete the more than successful overall concept perfectly.

This restaurant truly has potential to become my new tribal.The location is easy to reach! The good transport connection makes it possible to take a trip there.The beverage selection felt my friend and I didn't feel bad!Not only the nice local staff was the total hit during my visit, but also the unique flair.
