;
Rosastrasse 9; mains €10-26; closed Sat
lunch, Sun; )
There's a great lunchtime buzz at this contemporary, high-ceilinged bras-
serie behind Colombipark. It's an unpretentious, kid-friendly choice, with an ingredient-
focused menu homing in on dishes from homemade pasta to herb-crusted lamb.
BRASSERIE
Kreuzblume €€€
( 311 94; Konviktstrasse 31; mains €22.50-24.50, 3-course menu €36; Wed-Sun)
Clever backlighting and a menu fizzing with bright, sunny flavours attract a food-literate
clientele to Kreuzblume. Dishes like home-smoked cod with beetroot and anise and zingy
lemongrass tart with chilli, mango and yoghurt pack a taste-bud punch.
FUSION
Wolfshöhle €€€
( 303 03; Konviktstrasse 8; mains €16-27; closed Mon lunch, Sun)
With tables set
up on a pretty square, Wolfshöhle is a summer-evening magnet. The menu whisks you off
on a gastro tour of the Mediterranean, with well-executed dishes like Iberian pork with
wild-garlic purée and scampi with saffron-infused risotto.
MEDITERRANEAN

( 383 115; Konviktstrasse 12; mains €9-16; Tue-Sun)
A warm, woody Baden-style
Weinstube
(wine tavern) with wisteria growing out front and regional flavours on the
menu. The trout in various guises (for instance, with riesling or almond-butter sauce) is
delicious.
