My lab went on a "lab trip" to Karlsruhe, and stayed in the boring-est ever "village" Eggenstein. We arrived late evening, unpacked, and tried to find a place to eat dinner. Found a Restaurant Loewe that was super expensive... almost as expensive as the Nobel Prize Menu in Stockholm! The whole street was empty, it's like a ghost town. In the end we found a "Chinese" restaurant... I would call it more of a student's cheap eatery. I had koolowyuk (sweet and sour pork):
It was more like fried potatoes! With tomato puree poured over the rice. Quite gross. It's super oily, had stomach ache the next day!

Dinner the next day was good... we were treated to the expensive restaurant! I guess that's the only edible restaurant around. It was quite a good choice, we booked the whole restaurant, so there were no background noise to disturb our "scientific" talks!
Appetizers: Whipped cheese (slurp. yummy!) and quail egg with basil.
Starters: Garden salad -literally. They just pluck whatever they have in the garden I think There were rose petals, some grass (really!!) and leaves (not kidding!)... and some normal salad veggies. The salad veggies were nice with the salad dressing.
Main: Chicken with creamy white wine gravy. 
Dessert: Looks pretty eh? Appeltaart, but different from the Dutch ones... it's half an apple on a yummy pastry. Everyone was just trying to scrape the chocolate off... to no avail.
