Von Nebenan - Bad Schwartau

Pretty, but still expandable friend M. invites her lion friends to a later birthday party. Regional, seasonal and suitable for vegetarians who sound so tempting that we don't think long and reserve a table for three. We enter a modern, well-designed restaurant. Especially the bar stools fall on me, they look like champagne cork a real eye-catcher. The next highlight: The guest has a free view of the pool and the hot tub of the Holstein Therme. For us a large, wide table is prepared in the covered outdoor area; we just sit a stone's throw away from the pool edge. Each place is equipped with an exceptionally beautiful menu, and beside it rests cutlery in a maritime napkin bag. In the really interestingly equipped menu, we will pronto-funny and then see a little very amusing for the bathers with their body and wellness. The somewhat nervous service ladies rushes past our table several times until a time finally accepts our wishes. We learn the reason for the turmoil when ordering: we expect a bigger company at every moment, so it would take a little while with our food... We are all three very hungry and therefore only moderately patient. But hey, what should it be, quite relaxed, we can wait... enough to say we have, and if necessary the colorful driving in the pool provides for scattering. The drinks are served very hard: soft drinks for us, tea for M. they are ice cold, and against the wind that blows us around the ears, unfortunately the designed blankets do not help. Soon the question arises: Where to go with the tea bag?! There is no small bowl, so only the unsightly clover version of the lower cup remains. First deductions in the B note. But then, after an amazingly short time: three big plates our food comes! Unpack general crumbs and eager cutlery that is worth mentioning in hand. It follows hungry silence at full concentration on the essential. M. quickly reaches the first hurdle: how to eat the baked avocado? There is no spoon and for cutting it is much too hard (not ripe?! Second hurdle. . mr.lion is looking forward to his omelet, which is perfect for him: crispy roasted potatoes covered by scrambled eggs full of fresh herbs, beautifully seasoned two thumbs above. I'm fighting with my unripe avocado and also with the couscous that falls loosely from the fork and surprises me at the first bite with a laurel leaf... the by the way lands quite nicely on the edge of the plate, the plates and everything else. A spoon would be good now, but the ladies rush into society with soup sticks, and so important it is not, crumbs, so I go diligently. Hürde number three. “Are you really warm?” “Nee, not really.” “Schade.” “And? tasty?” “Yes, but... so far it is good.” Yeah. In the cousin we meet little red pods and M. asks if they are hot. A tiny corner of a round later I know to report: yes, very sharp. “That would have been, I cannot get rid of it! Can't they just do that in there?" Yes, I agree, perhaps prefer to take out before serving, and say that the laurel with or at least (please ... grow the hurdles. mr.lion awards five stars for his Omelette, M. and I fluctuate between three and four... As dessert, we asked for cappuccino, tea and emperor's marrs with vanilla ice cream a plate, three spoons, please. tea again without bag storage, and the cappuccino... by mr.lion called “small way abhorrent!”; I also find it very empty.... The Schmarrn (with two forks and two spoons looks quite clear, comes with fine, homemade apple agar, is really beautifully decorated with fruit and mouth well on all sides. The total amount is well 45 euros, according to Unisono the verdict. The temperature of the couscous (no matter in summer, but as a warm meal on cool days? the unripe avocado (not delicious! the spices (sharp Schote = dangerous! the tea bag problem (so easy to solve the missing table) soon makes something more curious (Couscous linger)
