Sehr schönes Kaffee/Restaurant. Wir genossen das Esse auf der Terrasse, der perfekte Ort an einem heißen Sommertag. Der Service war aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Es war Österreichische Woche mit dem "Gast-Küchenchef" Rudi Slovak. Der gebürtige Österreicher beherrscht sein Handwerk und zaubert einen Teller voll Wien nach Basel! Das Wienerschnitzel mit Kartoffelsalat ein Gedicht! Der passende Wein gab's auch dazu. Der Preis für Speis und Trank war angemessen. Ich hoffe, dass es bald wieder eine Österreichische Woche gibt. Ich komme wieder.
