Eating is one of my favorite hobbies which is especially hard when you’re really bad at cooking. But okay that doesn’t matter for now haha! When in Cologne the big question is where to eat? Unfortunately I was only there for two days but I did manage to come up with some suggestions.
The one place I had been hearing all about was Cafe Buur so of course I wanted to go try it. It’s a new place with a menu including healthy and unhealthy foods, but all a very yummy. My friend got the salmon toast and I stuck to the big dish (because I like to eat…) Oriental Healthy. At least it was healthy so I didn’t feel so bad about eating this much. I was pleasantly surprised with the mix of foods since it actually came together really well. I highly recommend eating here, it’s a good vibe.
All you can eat sushi is always the right decision, especially when it’s cheap like this place. I was quite surprised to pay 12 euros for it, since here in the Netherlands you can expect to pay at least around 20 to be able to eat at one of the classic chains. We ordered a lot and ate a lot but did run into one tiny issue as our experience turned more into an all you can wait sushi…
Our second order took a solid hour, but we were so hungry and impatient we ordered dessert. But then the dessert came before our second order of sushi arrived so that got a little messed up haha. Nevertheless cheap and good sushi, Shukodo is the way to go. But keep in mind, you might end up spending a long time here!
I mentioned previously the German bakeries and their heavenly bread. They also sell sandwiches there, freshly made! I took this picture at the Wiener Bäckerei at the central station wishing I was hungry enough to eat one. Sadly not, except I could go for a salami sandwich right now. If you need to grab a quick lunch and want it to be good, this is your best option. My favorite part is really that it is all freshly made, especially the bread.
