Frankfurt: King Kamehameha Suite
Kamehameha's dramatic
staircase
Every May, Conde Nast Traveler releases its Hot List, a collection of the best new hotels, spas, restaurants, and nightspots. Check the Daily Traveler every day for a new post from this year's list.
In the late '90s, when Madjid Djamegari opened the massive King Kamehameha Club in the Frankfurt's industrial east, he was crowned the city's king of nightlife. After much anticipation, Djamegari has finally launched a spot for grown-ups, the King Kamehameha Suite, in a stunning historic building across from the Opera House. A wide, winding staircase leads to the second-floor dining room, overseen by American chef Alan Ogden. His hearty creations give German high cuisine an international twist: dorade on mashed potatoes with apple juice-infused blood sausages, or wild boar stew with hazelnut spaetzle. After dinner, guests relax in the compound's bars and lounges to talk euros over serious cocktails--this is, after all, the capital of banking (entrées, $29-$35).
