Eat Happy in Merzig

Even as a child, I exchanged my pocket money for ice cream there 35 years ago. I live far away now, but when we meet up there with the family, I've never been disappointed. The rump steak and salads are great. Schnitzel is also highly recommended. The classic is of course the chicken, which everyone is always enthusiastic about. Service quick and friendly.

Delicious kebab for €6, was very fresh and tasty, with juicy chicken and good tzatziki sauce. The shop is very clean and the owner is very nice.

Food arrived quickly and hot, but the burger patty (something frozen) was very rubbery. The curly fries were crispy, you just had to deep fry them, at least that worked. The best thing about the baked pasta was the cheese, the Bolognese sauce was pure water and tasted inedible and the pasta was overcooked. Would advise against ordering food here, €30 wasted.

The ambience was modern, a matter of taste, but relatively dark. Service was ok. We ordered seaweed salad and Tom Yum soup. The soup was extremely coconut milk heavy and therefore more like a cream sauce. Anyone who has ever eaten a real TomYum in Thailand will immediately taste the difference. The seaweed salt was good. For the main course we ordered sushi. A sushi dish was deep-fried, unfortunately it ended up being far too greasy because the filling melted and you couldn't even eat it with a fork (let alone with chopsticks). Unfortunately, the filling mainly only consisted of cream cheese. The other sushi was with fish roe which tasted good. The rice had little taste. Price performance is quite ok. When we wanted to have some packed, we were charged €1 for the small box, which we only saw afterwards on the bill. A bit bold.

Super nice hosts, delicious food, great to linger
