Also haben wir uns nen Platz im Biergarten gesichert. Schön war...das die Ansprache durch den Service schnell und freundlich war. Nach dem ersten Schluck sahen wir uns dann etwas mehr um. Der Biergarten ist übersichtlich...aber dafür in keinem optisch guten Zustand. Tische und Bänke sind stark beansprucht ....und von der blauen Farbe sind an manchen Garnituren nur noch Reste. Beim umsehen innen....ein ähnliches Bild.Die schwarz lackierten Stühle und Bänke haben schon ziemliche Gebrauchsspuren. Bei naturbelassenem Holz in braun würde das vermutlich nicht so stark auffallen....aber bei schwarz sticht das schon ins Auge. Unsere bestellten Essen kamen zeitnah.Vom Gemüsecurry über Schnitzel und Schäuferla gegrillter Haxen war alles vertreten.Die gegrillte Haxe und das Schulterstück hatten wohl die gleiche,etwas dünne Soße. Grundsätzlich was das Essen in Ordnung....portionsgröße normal...aber alles in allem war es nur Standart....Nichts besonderes. Der Feinschliff ...und das Auge für Details fehlt.Und der Biergarten direkt vorm Eingang ist nunmal auch ein Aushängeschild....was aber einer überarbeitet bedarf.

Spousal Unit and I joined a boatload of friends (literally!) for a Christmas Market cruise on Gate…read more1. (Review of the cruise to be posted separately - but it will be great!). While wandering the old town and it's very nice market (and enjoying abundent gluewhein mit flaming rum) we settled down for a nice lunch at Schlenkerla. Great choice! First, the smoked beer. Not my favorite, but hey, when in Bamberg ya gotta try it. The menu was not extensive but that's not a negative. I think too many restaurants offer too many choices with too little quality. Not a problem here. My friends ordered gulasche soup; a baked potato with salad combination plate (with two "small" baked potatoes drenched with what appeared to be fifteen pounds of butter); very tasty sausage with very, very tasty sauerkraut; and what I ordered: Bamberg style stuffed onion with mashed potatoes. I thought I was being virtuous. I must rethink my definition. The two very large onions were stuffed with a pork/bacon/bread/herb mix then roasted. Delicate taste that paired beautifully with mashed potatoes and smoked beer/beef stock sauce. Wunderbar! Look, I'm not a fan of tourist traps. Schlenkerla is certainly well-promoted to all of the tour operators, but most of the diners were obviously local. The menu was the same for all, as was the service. Excellent choice, and highly recommended.
