Frankfurt am Main
Stunning city views and equally stunning food await at this 7th-floor restaurant and bar, reached from the lobby of Fleming’s Hotel via a paternoster lift that will make you feel like you’re in a 1930s movie. Start with dishes like lobster soup with pastis foam, followed by mains such as rib-eye steak with Béarnaise sauce and potato gratin.
Save room for desserts like Bienenstich (a buttercream-filled yeast cake topped with roasted almonds) accompanied by spiced figs and mandarin sorbet.
