The young Ugly Duckling, with its blend of French bistro and regional yet boundlessly conceived creative cooking from chef Lenja Bahlburg and host Clément Noel, is barely an insider tip any more.
Kaiserhappen recommendation
„Ugly Duckling cultivates its selection of natural and biodynamic wines with a focus on France, and the advice is excellent. The cocktails from the house bar (Negroni!) are a pleasure too!“
Whatever's on the menu, however you like it. The classic menu categories don't apply here; you order what appeals, to share or enjoy on your own, everything on the table at once or in several rounds.
The sea-blue zellige tile wall, rotating art and plain wooden tables with bistro chairs show that Ugly Duckling values the beauty of simplicity. Casual and relaxed, lively and colourful. Plus good music without genre boundaries.
