Memories and hints of a travelling IT professional.
Café do Mar – that sounds like summertime, surfing, sun and cocktails. And that’s absolutely what it is. Sometimes they are making barbecues, but this place is by then absolutely overcrowded. Best come here in the afternoon and enjoy a nice coconut milkshake.

Is your last trip to Switzerland already too far away? If you want to enjoy some traditional Swiss meals the “Matterhorn-Stübli” is the place for you! Located in “Bad Wilhelmshöhe” close to the Schloss Wilhelmshöhe in Kassel, you can feel like rather being close to the Alps.

But don’t worry, the area is only as wicked as a Swabian red light district can be. The place itself is absolutely traditional and has also a nice garden for summer times.

Okay, we should not really call it a restaurant – but it is a stylish eatery serving good-quality Turkish ravioli, called Mantı (yes, that is no “i” in the end); filled dumplings served with yoghurt, garlic and sumac. After visiting Istanbul I was looking for a place like this, even if the Mantı aren’t as small in size as typical.

Close to river Ljubljanica and Čevljarski most in Ljubljana, Slovenia you will find the Paninoteka + which can fulfill your needs.

They’ve got international menus and have a good variety of national dishes. Check the Kranjska Klobasa (if you’re not a vegetarian).

Yeah, okay – it is only a pizza chain in New York; but a really good one. And they have a store in my favorite neighborhood, Williamsburg, close to the subway station Bedford Avenue. The pizza is really good and if you need to fill you stomach while cruising through the bars of Williamsburg it is always worth a visit.

If people think about Japanese food, they always have sushi in mind. Or maybe kobe beef. But the best of all – and I’ve been twice to Japan – is Japanese curry. It is rice with chunks of meat of your choice with an extremely delicious gravy. I would walk one hundred miles for that.

During my stay in New York the quarter and semi finals of the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil where held. That is why I was looking for a bar showing the games of the German soccer team (“Die Mannschaft“, as it is called in the States). Easily I found the “Zum Schneider“, a Bavarian beergarden and restaurant in the East Village of New York.
