We sat at a table in the centre and were able to enjoy the warm and friendly ambiance. A memorable dish was the Himmel Un Äd - a local specialty.

We decided to sit outside, but because it started to drizzle, we went inside. We paid for our drinks outside and brought them in with us. The waiter was not friendly. Asked if we had paid for our drinks, I said we paid outside. I'm not sure if he believed me. When he finally came to take our drinks outside order, he seemed irritated with us. We got our drinks and order our meals. Our meals arrived very quickly and everything was wonderful. However, upon closing our bill, the waiter got very angry with me saying something about good service and no tip. We are literally in Germany where you don't tip. It's a cool place to see, but I'm not sure I would go back.

I got the best and first schnitzel of my life and I'm not being dramatic when I say it was a complete game changer. Crispy as you like with that creamy peppercorn gravy poured over top. I had a side of chips that soaked it up perfectly. Could have shed a tear right there at the table. Washed it down with five Kölsch on the spot. Ended up drinking about thirty throughout the day while walking around the city like a legend. Started early and never let off the gas. This meal brought me back to life. I went full animal mode until 3 in the morning and honestly I blame the schnitzel. Right place. Right time. Right pint. Quality food. Prime location. Germany, you've set the bar.

It is a Kolsche beer that they serve here. It comes in small glasses (maybe 3-4oz) and they will just keep bringing you beer unless you cover your cup with a coaster! It's pretty fun! We did choose to try a few things that we had never tried before! All of it was great, a couple things too kind of a brain adjustment? In the USA, we don't eat raw pork. I guess Germany has higher standards for their meat and it can be eaten raw! The Kolsche tapas is raw pork on bread with seasoning and toppings! It was really good! Don't be scared! Give it a try!!! The second one that was a bit of a mind freak was the kolscher kaviar. It is a black pudding which is blood sausage. It is colored with pork blood!
