Dinner - Biergarten

One of the truly special things about Germany are the biergartens. This Friday evening we went with Tomas and his parents to one of the many biergartens that are along the Rhein.

The weather was absolutely splendid, as it was about 70 degrees with a light breeze. Typical fare at a biergarten seems to be pizza, salads, and pretzels - however pretzels in Germany are a bit more like a roll, than we are used to in the U.S.

On this particular evening we also stumbled upon the secret to reasonable service in Germany. If you sit directly next to the waiter's station, you actually have a chance at getting them to come to your table more than once an hour. Good to know.
