"The Alte Feuerwache (in English, the name means Old Firestation) is a restaurant by Kurt Podobnik, a chef awarded a Michelin star, as well as various other awards. It is located in Wurselen, not far from the city of Aachen and the Dutch and Belgian borders. The interior of the restaurant is classic but comfortable, and the staff was attentive without being obtrusive. The menu changes regularly to deliver seasonal food and, presumably, add variety for regular customers. We went there in December in a party of twelve, so we managed to try a good selection of dishes on the menu. Everyone agreed that the food is great. There is a good selection of meat and fish dishes and vegetarians are also offered, although there is not much choice. When I was there, both the first and most important course were vegetarian options dishes with goat cheese as the main ingredient. I had it as the first course and it was excellent baked goat cheese in a Velouté sauce with Laeks. But obviously I didn't want goat cheese anymore, even if cooked differently for the main course. I have no enormous appetite, so two courses are enough for me, and I decided therefore for the first course and dessert (again, super). But it would have been nice to have a bigger choice. Do they fit on other special diets? Not on the menu vegans or people after certain medical diets could have problems finding suitable choices. But one of our parties was on a low salt diet and when we asked that his food was prepared with little salt, there was no problem. I guess if you ask, they'll take you as far as possible. Given the quality of food, prices were extremely reasonable and I would like to eat there again."
