Eight black tiger prawns are served.

shrimpTuesday at Sophia's (The Charles Hotel) – Every Tuesday evening, Sophia's Restaurant and Bar now offers all-you-can-eat shrimp. More precisely, once a week... „"Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday"“ Instead. Since I am a big fan of the little delicacy on my plate and have also been a fan of Sophia's Restaurant & Bar from the beginning, it didn't take long and the table was reserved for Tuesday evening.

Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday

In addition to the regular menu and à la carte service, "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday" has been on the menu for about a month now. This means you can come by every Tuesday evening and enjoy a special shrimp dish. for 49 euros per person eight large black tiger prawns with various dips and sauces as well as your choice of side dishes. The shrimp are served on a banana leaf-covered platter with three small, differently filled dipping pots (pesto, guacamole, aioli), whose flavors perfectly complement the delicate and light shrimp meat. Of course, it's even more fun if you order two, or even three or four, side dishes. various side dishes The menu offers a variety of options, including crispy sweet potato fries, crunchy grilled vegetables, and a colorful salad dressed with a flavorful dressing. Herb baguettes are also available.

Get to the shrimp…

I was both excited and quite hungry, looking forward to the evening. My tip: If you arrive with a big appetite, I recommend choosing one of the delicious appetizers before the shrimp. When I visited, I ordered the fries and vegetables as a side dish to accompany the shrimp. My companion opted for the herb baguette and salad. Ultimately, everything ends up on the table between you and your companion, and you can share as you wish – that's what we did, at least. The shrimp, served in sets of eight per person, are of the highest quality, perfectly shelled, and with just a couple of deft movements of your hand, knife, and fork, you'll have pure, tender shrimp meat on your fork. The side dishes are also absolutely delicious and complement the shrimp perfectly. Simply delicious!

How about a delicious appetizer beforehand? – Why not.

Made for everyone
What I particularly like about "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday" is that it provides a skillful contrast to the rest of the menu. This means that both the side dishes and the shrimp themselves are perfect not only for a formal dinner, but also for a relaxed get-together, chatting, and perhaps enjoying sweet potatoes, shrimp, and baguette in a laid-back atmosphere. You feel comfortable at Sophia's whether you're enjoying a four-course meal, an à la carte dinner, a few creative drinks at the bar (I've experienced it all!), or, of course, the new "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday." It's also nice that there's a... legendary "snack board"„ There's a constantly changing selection of small delicacies for a perfect start to the evening, and it's always served when you come for dinner (not just on Shrimp Tuesday). This time, my companion and I had two kinds of homemade bread, pickled garlic, sea salt, a delicious spread, ham, and other treats on the board.

„"Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday"“

As mentioned: Before the whole party, I recommend you do fine appetizer To order. My favorite, the burrata on Sophia's menu, is so outrageously delicious that it would be a sin to skip the starter. This starter is always complemented and served with different seasonal accompaniments. On my last visit, for example, it came with walnuts and figs, and in this case, with marinated winter vegetables and wild herbs. Alternatively, the à la carte menu also offers Sophia's Salad, Label Rounge salmon tartare, scallops with radicchio, nashi pear, and parsley root, or Iberico pork with bell peppers, aioli, and capers as a starter – all between 12 and 21 euros.

Information and personal opinion

A reservation in advance, or specifically mentioning that you're coming for "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday," isn't strictly necessary, as the tiger prawns and their accompanying side dish have been added to the regular menu. However, if you're coming in a larger group, I still recommend reserving a table. My opinion is clear: an evening at the lovely Sophia's Restaurant & Bar is always worthwhile – no matter how often I visit, I come to the same conclusion. I also find just under €50 perfectly reasonable for such a wonderful evening, with top-quality food and a harmonious atmosphere. So, if you enjoy prawns and a variety of equally high-quality side dishes, "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday" should be reason enough to make Tuesday evenings free of anything else. 🙂 As mentioned, I've already had the pleasure of participating in "Sophia's Shrimp Tuesday" once, and the very next day I asked my "food-loving" friends and acquaintances who would be free next Tuesday... My final tip: A glass of Ruinart Rosé as a starter.
