Charming waitresses in folk costumes will tell the visitors everything about German cuisine. Chef from Germany is in charge for the kitchen. The food is excellent here: all the dishes are tasty and nourishing. Of course a whole list of Schwabian dishes leads the menu. Here is " Stuttgart " salad, pork leg with red cabbage, and sausages with bacon. Fanciers of German cuisine from other lands also have a lot to treat themselves to here. "Culinary travel round Baden-Wuertenberg" looks impressive. It is a meal for two including the whole range of traditional German cuisine. And what pastry they have at the restaurant! Real" Pretzel" bread is especially good (it is baked in a knot shape), as well as wonderful strudels with various fillings. And, as is customary at a German restaurant, the place of honor in the drink chart is occupied by beer. The pride of the house is "Alpirsbacher" beer, the old elite beer brewed from the water of a mineral spring in Schwarzwald.
