restaurant
Froilein Meier
The eponymous chef-owner of this café in trendy Kreuzviertel, Dortmund, regularly travels to Scandinavia seeking inspiration and it shows in the tasteful, wood-panelled interiors. Brunch menus are excellent - expect acai bowls and whipped feta on rye. Booking is a must, even on weekdays.
