Bistro Krempels - St. Ingbert

The Bistro Krempels in St.Ingbert was a long cult before it was dense and empty for years. Gastwirt Oliver Muskalla now bought the restaurant. He wants to revive it with French flair. The gastronomic career of Oliver Muskalla has many stations. Since 1998 he has been an independent host. At this time, he began together with Thomas Lauer in the Bistro Krempels in the Seyenstraße. Further stations followed. This included the Millenium, the Aunt Maja in Saarbrücken, the inn Fath in Sengscheid and finally the brewhouse on the brewery grounds in St.Ingbert, from which he had to separate his coronary heart. It took me day and night; I didn't want to put my whole life under the compulsion of keeping this house alive, which was very difficult afterwards. In contrast, he continues to run the small brewery. Parallel to the closing of the brewhouse, he opened the glass beer factory in the pedestrian zone of St.Ingbert. I've always dreamed of washing out my own beer in the city centre. And now he opened the Bistro Krempels again; Dirk Karcher, his former cook from the brewhouse, is with the game. The card changes every four weeks. You notice that Muskalla has a clear concept: Bring fresh seasonal dishes to the table with relatively few components. So the octopus appears on the map of the Entrées as well as on the main dishes. The salmon is also fresh and processed in various compositions. Interesting that all appetizers are also offered as main dishes. The Argentine beef fillet speaks to the guests looking for classics of the Krempels cuisine. The Oktopus Tagliarini with fennel and saffron let new taste experiences await. Ice cream, crême brûlée and other desserts are made themselves Muskalla does not want any comfort on the plate. Solid quality, not raised, no Schickimicki, that is Muskallas's goal. Koch Dirk Karcher, for example, also enchants a perfectly roasted bratbeef with a very successful chimichurri, an Argentinian herbal jinade and a sweet potato puree. Everything fits together wonderfully. The wine card is good, Muskalla also has large Saarland products in the refrigerator. And beer friends are particularly concerned about the bright Weisgerber, Nicos as Pils, Pale Ale Kronprinz or Wheat Ludwig come all from Muskallas's own small brewery, which is to be enlarged in the valleys. With the Brauhaus Muskalla has definitely completed, but his way, his new way now he goes with great energy. Next year he wants to open a beer garden in the beautiful park of the Seyenanlage. It was too daring this year. With new team, new technology and new kitchen he wanted to grow. Apparently he has succeeded in enjoying the Bistro Krempels rainy taste and already has several regular guests. (Example SZ from 25.08.22)

A very rustic, cozy restaurant with a very friendly atmosphere. The dishes are excellent and worth the price. We were there at noon and were lucky to have a table; so booking is a good idea. The service is also very friendly and the food has been carefully applied and lovingly prepared. We definitely like to come back.

From A-Z we liked everything very well! Thanks to the new managing director, great work! The service is really excellent, very friendly, charming and not too intrusive. The food tastes delicious and is very appealing! There's something for everyone. The portion size is top. And we also liked the wine selection nicely that the Krempels has opened again. This is definitely an enrichment for Sankt Ingbert. We'll be back soon.

Service very good, ambience cozy. This was unfortunately also with the cult Krempels. Menu very strongly reminds of a former restaurant in St Ingbert (name I leave), even tastefully hardly a difference, unfortunately not the best. Noodles were weakly spiced, the fries of my meat dish were too long in the frituse. Price performance ratio only fits with drinks, for which dishes are too expensive. Also very small selection for vegetarians. No credit card payment possible, very weak in today's time

Great! The service was very friendly and accommodating. The lunch, a field salad with roast potatoes, was perfect for lunch. One notices that one has high-quality products prepared with craftsmanship. The brewed beer is just great. I like to come back!
