I can honestly say that if the meal I had tonight at Restaurant ROSIN was not the best meal I have ever had in my life, it was definitely in my top 5. This Michelin star rated restaurant, located in of all places, the small town of Dorsten Germany, totally blew my mind. They have a unique format, wherein you you order however many courses you want, but they automatically have "intermissions" which they call "Schmackofatz" (Small Special Tastes) which are somewhat of an amuse bouche between each course. Rumor has it that Frank Rosin's grandmother used to roam the dining room in it's original incarnation (ROSIN is in the original building) and sample from her pot to each customer. Every single item on the menu was creatively presented with surprising but delicious combinations of flavors (i.e. goose liver with rose water foam, scallop with vanilla peperonata, cocoa souffle with sea salt ice cream and candied olives) and a very artistic approach.
If you are ever anywhere near Essen or Dusseldorf, this one is worth the drive, trust me.
