Love your videos and hopefully you will open a restaurant in Europe until Hungary wants to be part of us again, rather than join ruzzia.

Fine dinning done in a modern way both with food, music and service. Been to a lot of other Michelin stared restaurants before and been to a few after Frantzen but so far nothing comes even close...

    I usually don't take reviews of restaurants too seriously when it seems like the reviewer has some affiliation, but I think it's completely different with 3 star restaurants. In a case where excellence is a standard, seeing how a "VIP" would be treated is a unique refrence and sets expectations in stone. Fluctuating expectations aren't tolerated in that industry so you know there isnt much room for subjectivity to be swayed by affiliation. That's why it's especially nice having a comparison in knowing your getting the best of service upon a visit, and what I think seperates your channel as an owner from the average reviewer.

    I love your videos. Do fly to the island of Sylt in Germany's north. Johannes King cooks!!!
    Been binge-watching for the last few days. It's a bit distracting that I have to turn on CC - you are very difficult to understand :(

    35000 for two is an insane amount of money. That’s perhaps my strongest gripe in this country.
    The price they set isn’t proportional at all to what people are making in this country.

    Great video, amazing food. But that bill of over 3000 Euro? Was that just for you?

    9:25 black garlic isnt actually fermented, it is slowly cooked in moderate temp (60 deg C). I dont know if It was international that you said it was additionaly fermented or you thought of slowly cooking.
    Superb review, was seriously waiting on you to get on frantzen! ❤❤❤
