Dining experiences, is about details and a very few items were marked as not optimal (all subjective)

• Red Burgundy was overpowered by the meat
• Steak knives were sharp but seemed gimmicky
• Gold – Waste or not a fancy of mine

Conclusion to festivities, 3 stars fame and all is well deserved… and this little visit were fantastic – even competing with Quique Dacosta

• Victor’s Gourmet Restaurant @ Schloss Berg is a destination – book now.
•  Some Style resemblance to La Vie and Martin Berasategui (More fish & Asia)
• Fish was delicious
• We need to learn more about our wine region
• I need to take more pic’s of host and chefs
• And to shake the camera less… new lens?
• Life is good & we must travel more
