I opted for the daily special of bbq turkey, pumpkin chutney and grilled potatoes. A first for pumpkin chutney I wish I had a bowl of it! Turkey was moist and flavorful. I also had a glass of Ursprung Cuvée a red wine from a semi-local winery. So I will be visiting this winery. The service was also over the top which I am finding in all German restaurants.
