We ate at LAVA tonight. I strongly advise anyone living in, or visiting Weimar to do the same. It’s a cosy, friendly restaurant that will certainly do you fish or vegetarian food, but our experience is really just of the meaty variety. The chef came...out part way through to make sure we were enjoying the food. He and the staff were obviously keen to be sure we were enjoying everything. We shared a lovely starter of Burrata in an interesting and tasty variation on the good old Caprese and we had a bottle of very nice red wine (Grosses Trio). The main event, though, was the New Zealand ribeye and the pork tomahawk. These were cooked to a perfect medium rare and were both supremely tender and flavoursome. I’ve only rarely had pork this tender. I could wax lyrical for a very long time about these plates of food. Suffice it to say that we had steak a few weeks ago at Gordon Ramsay’s Savoy Grill and it was most excellent (at that point probably the best I’d had at any restaurant), but the meat at LAVA was easily as good. I can’t give it higher praise. (My wife would have liked a little bit of green veg with it, but hey-ho!)More
