My Heidelberg experience completely changed last night after an excellent dinner at Oben.  It showed me Heidelberg’s best. From beginning to end, the creativity and honesty of the dishes did not stop. Pork dish was my favorite for the evening and trout for my partner. But the last dish of lettuce and raspberry was simply extraordinary. I visited Heidelberg from Japan where food and seasonality are always considered and I saw that at Oben. I will definitely come back when I’m in the Heidelberg again. What I found I interesting experience also was the payment - it’s bank transfer lol, but nonetheless a great experience.
