Dining
Marcel von Winckelmann
Armed with valuable experience gained in top establishments, Marcel von Winckelmann has struck out on his own with this restaurant with an open and friendly vibe. The centrepiece is the horseshoe-shaped chef's table wrapped around the visible kitchen, where you are right in the middle of the action.
