Well, well, well, what can I say other than STEAK glorious STEAK!!!
As a South African I am used to enjoying tasty meat and Steak is something we as South African's know how to cook\braai\order, eat and enjoy! Therefore, I am always a little nervous to order a Steak in any other Country as I am worried about the grey rubber that could possibly arrive and the complaint I will have to produce BUT at Restaurant Hirscheck you can order Steak and BE SURE that you will not only get the most delicious looking meal but the most perfectly cooked steak which you barely need to chew as it literaly just melts away in your mouth. Since my first visit there (my Boyfriends parents took us out for a meal), said boyfriend and I have been back twice and I am sure we will be returning again soon. And usually we already know what we are having before we even get into the car to drive there!
The Restaurant itself is situated in a very senic part of the district of Ravensburg, Baden-Württemberg. The panoramic views are breathtaking, any time of day, but the sunset is quite spectacular. The interior decor of this Restaurant is not really to my specific taste as there are quite a few stuffed heads of various animals on the walls and I am not comfortable eating while a Family of stuffed Ferrets stare down at me, but I have just had to learn NOT to look at them and just to ENJOY my meal.
The staff are friendly and traditionally dressed in Dirndl's. The chef (Koch) which we have now met, is also very friendly and on the one occasion where I did send my Steak back, just to be cooked a tiny bit more (I like Medium, Boyfriend likes Rare), he came back himself to check if all was OK and did not have any attitude or arrogance towards us which I have found so often happens.
Money matters: The Steaks cost between 16 and 18 Euro's and I can guarentee you that this is money well spent!!!
I definitely give this Restaurant the 'Little Gold Mine' badge and will gladly return and I can also recommend to anyone to pop in and enjoy something from the fairly wide variety of meals available on the menu, however if you enjoy a good Steak, please order one!
