Stadtpfeiffer

Petra and Deflef Schlegel give deceptively simple-sounding dishes the star treatment, and were deservedly the first in Leipzig to get the Michelin nod. Pairing punctilious artisanship with bottomless imagination, they create such exquisitely calibrated dishes as smoked Arctic char with foie gras or warm chocolate cake with lavender ice cream. It's a relaxed spot inside the Gewandhaus concert hall.
