"The restaurant “Kanonenhof”, although having a long tradition, was taken over by a young couple from Ex-Yugoslavia only in 2011. So far they made only minor changes. While the interior looks very much like before, the menu was modified to a certain extent. It now comprises a few typical Balkan dishes as e.g. Ćevapčići, but still boasts several of the classics of this restaurant. Some particularities also have remained the same, such as using a milk can rather than a tureen as a container for soup and serving one particular dish in a small wooden push cart. I was somewhat deceived that even on a Sunday at Midday there is only the permanent menu, but no menu of the day. The proprietors as well as the rest of the staff are remarkably hospitable and friendly. I do not know whether the waitress responsible for our table was still an apprentice or not. At any rate, she served the dishes and beverages in a completely unprofessional manner, although she obviously tried to do her best. Kanonenhof certainly strives to be more than an average restaurant and its price level corresponds to this ambition. The main courses we had were alright, but not sensational. A little more attention to presenting the dishes on the plates would be welcome if one wants to belong to this category of restaurants. That they know how to do it proved the “Mohr im Hemd” with a ball of ice cream, which we had as a dessert. It was both excellent and nicely decorated. All summed up we were quite satisfied and in spite of the aforementioned minor shortcomings value for money was acceptable."
