Today it was pleasantly quiet without a view of the mountains. The landlady is very friendly and if you don't see anyone you can just ring the bell. Our food was simple and delicious, the sausage salad has no pickled gherkins, which I personally love, and with real sourdough bread. We each got a second slice. There is also real filter coffee and the marble cake is not dry but moist and still fluffy. We got 3 pieces of marble cake for €2.50. I have forgotten what else they have.
