Emil Reimann Eiscafé is a mixed bag. My Paris Breakfast looked more like "leftovers from last week"…read more-- two croissants with overripe physalis, a strawberry whose leaves had given up, plus a slice of kiwi. My friend's Dresden Breakfast wasn't much better: scrambled eggs with bacon that was more greasy than festive. Food gets 2 stars.
Service? Fine. Nothing to write home about.
But the vibe -- oh, the vibe. Warm, twinkly, Christmas everywhere. It's like stepping into a holiday postcard. Ambience is a 5-star win.
And then the Green Vault Stollen swoops in like a hero. Moist, rich, spiced just right -- absolutely worth the stop. Another 5 stars.
Bottom line: Emil Reimann shines when it sticks to what it does best -- stollen and festive charm. Skip the breakfast plates, soak up the Christmas spirit, and grab that stollen. Overall, 3 stars.
