The "Geschnitten Brot" café in Altenburger Straße, a vibrant centrepiece of Cologne's Südstadt district, has long been more than just a place for simple sandwiches. Under the management of Paula , the concept has been undergoing change since 2018, transforming into a versatile address for sophisticated sandwich creations. This change reflects not only the willingness to develop creatively, but also the openness and conviviality that characterise Cologne.
With ingredients such as pastrami, home-marinated salmon and aubergine, "Geschnitten Brot" shows that sandwiches don't have to be banal. The brunch specialities on offer, such as French toast with cheddar or yoghurt with granola, also demonstrate the restaurant's efforts to reinterpret traditional dishes.
In addition to sandwiches and brunch, the range of cakes on offer, from carrot cake to classic sponge cakes, is sure to delight, evoking shared memories and celebrating the heritage of regional baking.
