If you’re a diligent reader of our newsletter, it will hardly surprise you when we say we are big fans of Pars. We’ll almost need a second hand to count the number of times we’ve reported on Kristiane Kegelmann’s restaurant and pralines. Behind Pars are three women who have created a unique place for casual fine dining. Owner and host Kristiane Kegelmann, chef Alina Jakobsmeier, and sommelier Julia Giese combine sophisticated craftsmanship with a flair — creating complex, multi-layered dishes using seasonal ingredients from small producers. In addition to the seasonal set menu, Pars has been offering à la carte dishes since yesterday (01.05.2024). So you can decide exactly what is brought to your table. Some dishes from the set menu are on offer but without the menu constraints. In addition, other larger dishes have been specially designed for the à la carte menu — changing, of course, depending on the season and best ingredients. With the additional concept, Kristiane wants one thing above all: to give more people access to her cuisine, regardless of their appetite or budget. Between stucco reliefs on the walls, cube parquet flooring, and works of art by Berlin artists, you can linger here with a glass of wine and a dish or two in a particularly casual, yet refined and elegant atmosphere.
