Venlo

Cabillaud

by

My wife had been wanting to try this restaurant in Venlo, The Netherlands for some time.  We decided to book a reservation for Valentines Day.

Soft shell crab

The restaurant offered a special Valentines menu for the evening, but my wife is a vegan, so the menu was not suitable for her.  Fortunately the Sous Chef was more than able to prepare an excellent vegan four-course menu for my wife.

The evening was absolutely spectacular.  The Sous Chef came out with every course and explained to both of us what they had prepared.  I have to say that this restaurant is on a Michelin Star level.  The food was absolutely spectacular, the wine pairings were spot on and the service was absolutely first rate.

Motown Music Cafe

by

My wife and I are always looking for new restaurants.  We recently moved to Kempen, Germany and have found a little gem of a restaurant in Venlo, The Netherlands, just across the German border.  We were visiting a local night spot in Venlo one day, and we asked the bartender where we could find good Sushi in Venlo.  Without hesitation he recommended the Motown Music Cafe.  He said you’ve got to go and see Eddie.  He makes fantastic Sushi there.  So here are some pics of our first visit to the Motown Music Café.  Sushi Chef Eddie Siang offers some of the best and most creative Sushi creations that I have ever had the pleasure of eating.  His Sushi rolls are more than an wonderful culinary experience; they are magnificent examples of creativity and his love for the art of preparing Sushi.

The restaurant has a Motown Music theme and sits on a beautiful square in downtown Venlo.  Around the corner from the restaurant is a lovely inner harbour near the river Maas.  If you’re ever in the area near Venlo and are looking for a really special Sushi experience, I highly recommend the Motown Music Café.  Eddie’s Sushi is available for dinner only; usually after 6:00 p.m.
