"On the way north we wanted to take a break just before lunch and look at something else. In short, we drove from the highway near boards and looked for a parking space in the city centre. Primo Cafe and Bar had already noticed us on the way through the pedestrian zone. On the way back to the car we decided to take the day offers listed on a table next to the entrance. We took place on one of the outdoor tables half under a large parasol, and immediately the young black dressed service came to the table and asked for our wishes. The regular menus for food and drinks were placed in a holder on the table, but we explained the day offers: “Fusili alla Romana, with asparagus, bacon and cherry tomatoes in Parmesan cream” at 8,00 € and pizza with salami, ham and mushrooms at 8,50 €. My accompaniment ordered the pasta dish and a mineral water (0.25l for €2.40, I decided for the pizza and ordered a cola light at the same price as the water. The service thanked and disappeared in the house, but came back after a short time and brought the drinks. About half of the tables in front of the house was occupied, one almost only heard conversations in Italian, also with the service. During the waiting period, more and more members of the Italian community came, welcomed those already sitting there and moved on after a short time or took place at the tables. After a reasonable waiting period, the service brought the pasta dish into a deep dish that was well filled. The pizza came naturally on a flat plate that almost completely covers it. I appreciate the diameter at 28 cm, that was an announcement. Expediently, it was pre-cut with a roller cutter, so that one would have eaten the pieces from the hand. I'm not the guy, so I used knives and forks. The dough of the pizza was loose and fluffy, on the edge crispy. The coating was bulky fine and also tasted good, clearly the salami was not a discounter product. The mushrooms were fresh, the overall impression was when I introduced a good salami ham pizza. My accompaniment also made me sample from the noodles, even this food was really good with bite-resistant pasta, fresh tomatoes, a creamy cheese sauce and fresh basil. We both became tired and left the place satisfied to get back on the way."

"The Hotel Filion with its Greek restaurant is centrally located in the heart of Bretten. Right on the historic market square. Here you can enjoy outdoors in the warm season, overlooking the jewels old buildings around, and in winter in the two-storey, noble restaurant. It resembles a small English pub, with its large mahogany and brass counter and around small, cozy tables. A staircase leads up where you can also eat with a view of the city centre. This day we had no intention to eat, but a bit of hunger was there, and the parking ticket lasted 30 minutes. Our view fell on the big table that leaned at the door and offered about 10 dinners. All between 9 and 12 euros. That could be the right thing, and in the hope that it will take us, we enter the place. Rarely so kindly greeted. Around the bar the tables were occupied so we were accompanied. We ordered twice food with rice and salad, served for 8, 90 euros. The mixed salad with baguette was served together with the drinks. And when I just wanted to grab it, the main dinner came, dressed nicely. That was right, and it tasted very good. I've never had such a good big. That's it. Very satisfied we could pay immediately. A unique service had been, and had expired exactly three minutes before the parking ticket when we arrived in the parking lot nearby. The restaurant writes that it prepares dishes with many regional ingredients and according to original Greek cuisine. I take more time and try one of the fish dishes offered. But on this day everything worked wonderfully, and I want to give 4 stars."
