Salzkammer

Frankfurt am Main


Warm timbers give this restaurant a cosy atmosphere, and it has a beautiful umbrella-shaded terrace. But it's the traditional Austrian food that leaves a lasting impression, from Styrian fried chicken to three different sizes of schnitzel with cranberry sauce and fried potatoes, beef broth with liver dumplings, and Kaiserschmarrn – caramelised, shredded pancakes with Zwetschgenröster (plum compote).
