Press review

Dear friends and enjoyment communities of the 100/200,

The end is near!
On October 15, we’ll be cooking vegetarian for the last time. Only for this year, of course, because “Die Saison” will of course be back in summer 2023!
And before we throw ourselves as passionately as ever into the last two weeks, we want to take advantage of Sunday and share our joy with you over the many beautiful lines that have been written about us in recent weeks.
We hope you enjoy reading them and look forward to seeing you again soon!

Until then – stay tuned.

Best regards,

Sophie Lehmann and Thomas Imbusch

The meaning of life

This was Jakob Strobel y Serra’s recent headline in the FAZ.
And what followed was incredibly beautiful for us: a report on an evening at our restaurant with “Die Saison”.
But also about gastronomy in general, about talent, courage and passion:

“And behind everything is always the same idea that complexity has nothing to do with intricacy and sophistication has nothing to do with hocus-pocus.”

“Virtuoso and innovative”

Jürgen Dollase writes this in his column “Hier spricht der Gast” in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung.
Directly below a report on Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, he comes to the conclusion that the vegetarian menu is one of the best you can eat in Germany at the moment.

Even we are at a loss for words.
We silently enjoy words like “congenial” to describe our convoys all the more.

“Being more than appearing”

This was the headline of the article in the current issue of “Anders Handeln” on the topic of meaning.
To be honest, we thought long and hard about whether to give this interview at all.
A magazine with a church background and our thoughts on the topic of meaning?
That could easily go wrong.

We did it anyway, because the series doesn’t want to give answers, but impulses.
And in the intensive discussion with Sabine Henning later on, the question is: What is luxury for us?
And can luxury make sense?
Yes, because:

“Nobody is worse off because they eat here.”

“The evening, which I live in joy, which inspires me and blows the dust of everyday life off my soul, brings a new focus to my life.”

That’s how it should be!

Sometimes you have to give yourself time and trust that things will turn out right if you keep at it.
That was the case with our gallery.
And it was worth the wait.
At least that’s what Vijay Sapre says in the current “Effilee”, and he should know.
Firstly because he has known us since the beginning.
And secondly because he has tested it extensively…

“Is that art? I don’t know, but it’s certainly skill!”

We were already happy when he asked us on one of our visits whether it would be okay if he took the wine out of the chambre himself and – as a newly qualified junior sommelier – served it straight away.
And then such a wonderfully honest review in the magazine!
That’s really as good as it gets at the moment.
