This restaurant is housed in the Hellerauer Werkstätten für Handwerkskunst (a workshop founded in 1909 by Karl Schmidt). Served in a modern bistro atmosphere, the classically based food has seasonal and regional influences, and is made with carefully selected ingredients, which are prepared for maximum flavour and minimum fuss. Having difficulty deciding? Then go for the surprise menu ("Schmidt's Karte rauf und runter"). The affordable lunch deal goes down a treat, and the terrace is also lovely.
