Le Faubourg Reduced to the Essentials

For five years now, we’re recommended Le Faubourg on Augsburger Straße in Charlottenburg. Since its renovation, the restaurant beautifully straddles French elegance and tasteful cosiness, making it an ideal setting for diverse events: whether a company outing or an intimate evening for two.

The dishes always include meat or fish with vegetables. Carbs are rare. Everything revolves around the beauty and natural texture of produce. The intensity with which the new head chef René Klages has preoccupied himself with the balancing of aromas comes through clearly in Le Faubourg’s new menu.

Everything points to French gourmet cooking. Next to à la carte dishes you’ll find a new seasonal menu every quarter. From two to three dishes of choice to the full five-course menu ensemble including amuse bouche and pre-dessert ­– at Le Faubourg it’s all possible. The interplay of sour, spicy, and fresh is undeniably perfect. Even more casual meat eaters are sure to be impressed.

“A menu is a statement”, René Klages says. In our opinion, his cuisine is just that. And a Michelin star can’t be far away!
