"About forty years ago, I was occasionally a guest at the Blumenhof. At that time I had a bachelor's life, and the floweryard, located very close to my apartment at that time, served me as a start-up station if I wanted to go to eat delicious alone or with friends. Later, now married and sedentary at some distance to the Blumenhof, the restaurant was occasionally worth a visit. From these four decades has remained in my memory: good and tasty food, prices reasonable, service professional. One reason for my wife and me to strike again at the Blumenhof. The Blumenhof on Mendener Straße in Sankt Augustin-Mülldorf owes its name to its location. The restaurant, built on a detached house, on the corner of Mendener Strasse/Blumenstraße, is located on the entrance side of an access road to the so-called flower settlement, in which the flower road passes to the tulip path and branches off from the first of the Narzissen, Veilchen and Dahlienweg. This situation has probably inspired the Bosnian gastronomic family, now in the second generation, for naming. At the entrance to the restaurant on the Blumenstraße, parking spaces are created, which could be scarce with numerous motorized guests. Under the lettering “Restaurant Blumenhof” that spans the entrance area, we enter the dining area. Here is a friendly young gentleman who accompanies us to the previously reserved table. Our table is located in a “department” separated by table-high separations, each with two fours and two two tables at the window front of the restaurant to the Blumenstraße. On one side of the tables to the separation, a dark red primed upholstery bench with vertical black stripes offers seating for guests. On the other side of the tables are identically padded chairs. On our arrival, our “compartment” is occupied only at one of the two four tables, later at all four tables. This compartment-like division extends over the entire, quite large guest room. Summers offers a terrace additional space for guests. We feel comfortable at our table, a pleasant ambience to eat well. The friendly young gentleman from the Entrée pushes a slate table with the daily offers to our table, fills us with the menus and lets us choose. A daily offer on the slate board is very good for my wife. The menu is characterized internationally with food from beef, pig, lamb, poultry, calf and grilled specialities such as in traditional Yugoslav restaurants. Vegetarians are equally found. Prices are available in the regional area. We have time to choose. A lady, routined in appearance, friendly and hospitable, takes up our order so routined that she does not need any block, pen or digital helper to store. Her visual-spatial note block of the work memory is enough. In general, the service does a perfect job. Both the lady and the Lord are courteous, professional and make sure that the guest is to feel comfortable. They ask for further wishes whether it has tasted whether everything is right. The lady remembers: • Entenbrust with orange sauce, broccoli and rice (29,50 € from the daily menu for my loved ones, • Grilled lamb fillets in garlic sauce with seasonal vegetables and potato gratin (27,50 € for me and as an appetizer for me a • Bovine boar with vegetable julienne (4,50 €). Special gourmet medium (0.75 l for 7.50 € for my enthusiasts who declared themselves a carriage on the bock, and • a squirrel gray burgundy, QbA, dry, winery pine, oak sticks (0.2 l for 5,90 €). The oak vine drink does not remain solo during the evening. Drinks don't let them wait long. The young man serves them appropriately cooled. Little later, the lady serves us the greeting from the kitchen. Greeting from the kitchen The greeting from the kitchen remains on average. They are no longer crispy, rather saltless baguette slices, butter and a herbal cucumber with many red sprinkles, probably paprika and tomato. Well! My appetizer follows after a reasonable waiting period. The lady serves the soup, which is easily swept over the plated throat. Bovine force broth with vegetable julienne The strength broth is adorned with the cow's origin. It is plentiful with vegetable jelly, pancake strips – “Flädle” in the Swabian – are not missing either. A cattle force broth according to my gusto, hot and authentic in taste. A warm, yes hot, pleasant intro into the main dish of the already cool autumn evening. Our main foods follow. Entenbrust with orange sauce, broccoli and rice The optically beautifully presented dish makes my wife look good. The pink roasted duck breast with well-brown skin convinces by its tenderness and juice. The meat and the tasty sauce are well seasoned, as well as the broccoli, which is cooked with a light butter note. Also wonderful buttrig is the fine basmati rice, perfectly cooked, without being sticky. My dearest is more than satisfied with her choice. Grilled lamb fillets in garlic sauce with seasonal vegetables and potato gratin The lamb fillets, the three of them in the number, are super tender. They are no longer as pink as the duck breast on my wife's plate, yet soft and juicy. The garlic sauce has a note that matches its name and tastes excellent. The seasonal vegetables consist of boiled carrots, broccoli and cauliflower and are cooked and bite-resistant. The potato gratin complements the round of the lamb fillets and is unfortunately somewhat too dry. The wonderful garlic sauce makes up this deficit. Compared to past decades, our rating has changed little: good and tasty food, prices reasonable. We are very happy with our courts, yes, my wife is even delighted. As far as cleanliness is concerned, there is no reason for criticism in the guest or toilet areas. The men's toilet is very well maintained and very clean. Before paying, the lady asks from the service for a drink at the expense of the house, just as it used to be the “Croat” and also here in the Blumenhof. We choose two Sliwowitz who, due to the alcohol abstinence of my loved ones, end up eating, which I do not regret. Delicious, tasty and a matching finish. The guest at the Blumenhof can pay by cash, but also electronically by Maestro, Visa or Giro card. We pay easily via Apple Pay, the tip cash added. The prices in the Blumenhof are still as suitable as they were about forty years ago. Here you get a good kitchen and service for your money. This leads to the conclusion that I have drawn about forty years ago: The Blumenhof is worth a visit. For the prices invoked, the guest receives a kitchen of high levels, consistently reasonable price. A visit to the Blumenhof is worthwhile, so not only me, but also my wife."
