Le petit CINQ

Le petit CINQ is the second restaurant of the Boutique Hotel ESPLANADE Saarbrücken, presenting a puristic, international approach to seasonal cooking and a contemporary reinterpretation of classic cuisine. The restaurant commits to sustainable enjoyment through regional products from the house's biodynamic farm, Hof am Weiher, and is listed as SELECTED by the Michelin context while displaying "8 Pfannen" in the Gusto guide. Located within the Boutique Hotel ESPLANADE, it conveys an elevated yet relaxed bistro character. Service and kitchen atmosphere are friendly, unpretentious and modern. The cuisine is contemporary and purist with a seasonal focus and frequent Japanese inspirations. Dishes show playful refinement and experimental touches that prioritize product quality and the culinary experience over pure aesthetics. Head Chef David Wottke trained and worked seven years as a cuisinier in the hotel's two‑star restaurant ESPLANADE under mentor Silio Del Fabro. His cooking is described as a casual yet sensual aroma cuisine that is modern, timeless and aimed at delivering "soulfood". Specialties include a weekly rotating 3‑ and 4‑course menu with vegetarian alternatives for each course, miso aubergine, Perlgraupenrisotto, housemade pasta and warm chocolate cake or petit four desserts.
