High-end food in a high-rise dining room

Noteworthy for: Michelin-starred food aside, the panoramic view from the top floor of the Intercontinental Hotel gives stunning night-scapes over Fernsehturm, Tiergarten and Potsdamer Platz and beyond.

Talk of the town: Chef Thomas Kammeier is Germany's version of Gordon Ramsay and sells millions of cookbooks every year.

Oozing class and sophistication, this is where to come for a special occasion. It's not just the Michelin-starred food, which has made it stand out and win many accolades, but the immaculate service and elegant atmosphere.

The menu is a truly cosmopolitan pan-European mix with an attention to seasonality and source. The dishes change often, so there's always something new to try, whether its glazed foie gras with mango, or rib eye steak of wagyu beef. Prices are high and portions are small, however, so come for the experience rather than big eating.
