The charming little brother of ‘Balthasar’ can do more than the famous original. The Petit Frère is much cosier and more exclusive than the restaurant next door. A paradise for wine lovers. More than 100 exquisite names are on the menu, which is almost as thick as a book. It is divided into three unusual categories: ‘The Young’ (uncomplicated and light), ‘The Serious’ (deep and complex) and ‘The Rebels’ (improvised and surprising). An exciting tasting session is guaranteed. The small Petit Frère, which opened in 2023, is really cosy. Cognac-coloured leather benches, high-quality wooden furniture and rustic brick walls create a slightly rustic atmosphere. The outdoor tables are in a wonderful location in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the big city. And the food tastes fantastic too! The menu changes frequently, and in addition to French classics, there is an exciting mix of Italian, Austrian, German and even Indian dishes. The sharing menu is also great. It consists of five surprise courses and is for two people.
