This restaurant specializes in Frankfurter 'soul food', if you can call regional dishes 'soul food'. They have "Handkäse" which is a pretty stinky type of cheese served with picked onions on top. They also have more hefty meat and potato dishes. I got the Fränkische Wurste on top of Sauerkraut. It was good and they have caraway seeds on the table, ready to go! And, of course, since they are a Frankfurter Restaurant they have Apfelwein (Apple wine). This stuff is relatively low in alcohol; I'm guessing in the neighborhood of about 4% abv. On top of that, it is cloudy and not heavily carbonated. The aroma is strongly of apples but you can't really taste them, instead it is tart with hints of horse-blanket. You might call it 'rustic'.
The restaurant is situated at a T-instersection, but about 4 roads come together around the intersection. In any case, the city made a little plaza by this intersection and Weida's outdoor seating takes advantage of that. The contrast between the outdoor and indoor decor can be shocking. Outside, you sit on benches at tables and the surface is new and dark and fairly open, even though there are buildings all around. Inside is typically German with lots of wood and low ceilings, as well as longer tables so you can share your table with another party.
I've only been once, but from what I hear, the quality of the food is consistently good and the price is well worth it. Especially if you are just visiting for a short trip, you should go to Weida! read more
