Ostwind knows how to do Sichuan kitchen and the spice that comes with it. The charm of Ostwind’s interior is that it’s laid out like a family restaurant, with big round tables amongst the mix of seating arrangements (which are perfect for big group dinners where everybody sweats together like they’re in a Finnish sauna). You’ll often see tables sharing dishes, which is the way to go if you can gather a bunch of people brave enough (ok, not everything in their menu is spicy). If you do share, we’d recommend you order one of the Feuertopf variations (minimum of 4 people, 30€ / person) – yes, they live up to their name.
While in general the Sichuan kitchen is known for having a bite to it, don’t let that scare you off. There’s a large variety of meals that aren’t filled with their fiery chilis and will still do wonders for your tastebuds.
