Emma Metzler

Taking up residence in the city’s Museum for Applied Art (Museum Angewandte Kunst), Emma Metzler is a cool, somewhat kitschy bistro that looks like it could be one of the museum’s exhibits. Picture this: Bauhaus furniture, bold primary colours and strings of fairy lights crisscrossing the ceiling. The kitchen is led by head chef Anton de Bruyn who enjoys serving what he calls “neo bistro cuisine”: think sliced liver paired with mashed potatoes, quince and radicchio or black salsify tempura topped with poppy seeds and michelada salt. After dinner, take a walk along the museum embankment for a glimpse of Frankfurt’s glittering skyline.
