Dobler's is definitely a rare gem in Mannheim…read more I had the chance to grab lunch there one day, and was so pleasantly surprised by the impressive 4-course lunch menu. To be honest, we were a bit liberal with the bubblies and wine paring throughout the meal... I cannot recite every single ingredient in the 4 courses I was served. But I can say in full confidence that every dish, every bite, contained fresh and perfectly cooked ingredients drizzled with sauces and garnishes that balance, expand and deepen the flavor. I am definitely looking forward to return for dinner one day. Note: "Muss(t)" make reservation - as the locals would say.

To me it was the sort of place that once you were done with your food you'd still want to linger a while. The schnitzel with fries was always my favorite, and I seem to recall that it was reasonably priced. For gourmet food and upscale ambiance, you'd want to go elsewhere. But if you want some place that has sort of that neighborhood feel (although it's basically in downtown Mannheim), I can recommend Zentrale.

I had the "lido" breakfast which had two different types of cheese, fresh cheese, jam, butter, tomatoes, gooseberry and some different types of bread. Not large portions but nothing fantastic as I had hoped. And it made my wallet lighter by 10€ which is to say quite a bit for a Klein portion. Overall a disappointment. Either reduce the price or get more imaginative with the breakfast is my recommendation.

They have the large standard pretzels but also all kinds of pretzel based snacks (like pretzel wrapped hotdogs) and other baked goods for you to grab to snack on when you're out doing errands or traveling. Of course I had to try some authentic German pretzels while I was there and definitely recommend everyone gives them a shot, but it's not what I expected. The pretzels here are a lot more bland than the ones I am used to at Aunt Annies. But I do think that it is due to us Americans not knowing how to take things in moderation ;). We tend to coat these pretzels with tons of sugar and sweet powders or season with a ton of the garlic salt so that the flavor is more intense (I also believe that we use more artificial flavoring and Germany tries to lean toward more natural as possible, but I can't be sure this is the case). So the pretzels were not quite what I was expecting, but very good nonetheless. I mean at the end of the day, I do think they're the ones who have the right recipe and we need to tweak ours.
