Zur Tant 1 ★ ★ 4.5
Zur Tant in Cologne-Porz holds one Michelin star for classic-French cooking on the Rhine's right bank; worth the 20-minute taxi ride from the centre.
Order: The five-course seasonal menu combining Rhine-valley produce with French-Mediterranean technique
Tip: Open Friday to Monday only. The riverside Piccolo bistro is a lower-cost alternative to the gourmet room upstairs.
