The waitress was so nice and helpful as we struggled to read the menu in German (my husband and I know very little). We were able to get through with her help including wine recommendations. At this point we knew that we would at least walk away having had great service. Then the food... my husband and I each got pork but different preparations. We both cleaned our plates. And after three weeks in Europe, this was still my husband's favorite meal. We could not be...
