Very eclectic, and for it worked. I was here at an odd time and the kitchen worked with me to have a couple of different tastes. One was a salad that had tastes I cannot describe. Since my French is very rusty and my Italian did no good I can only tell you that is was a feast for the eyes and had flavors mixed together that were unique. The base was an assortment of small tender leaves with shaved beets and feta. Yum! Then came the quiche, which was the best I have had. The crust was just delightful - it was delicate yet not intrusive to the dish itself. My fillings were pork belly and aubergine. This is truly a French place without feeling citified. Great service made this a very fun meal.

Walking around on a very cold late morning, we went from one promising looking restaurant to the…read morenext, to find that they were either closed for the holidays or were serving very hearty/dinner type meals. We navigated to Troc Cafe (yelped our way here) and though breakfast was finished, the quirky, warm ambience, and a pleasingly inexpensive and interesting lunch menu (written on a slate on the wall) greeted us and we decided immediately to stay. The ambience deserves a little call out - heterogenous chairs, plates and tables. Old movie posters, a retro weighing scale, spoons, pans, cane baskets etc. hanging from the ceiling. Now for the food: for starters we had salads - mine, lentils mixed with small bacon bits on a bed of pea leaves. My companion's was a cold ratatouille (crumbled) and feta, also on pea leaves. Both filling and different and for only €2.20 each! For mains we got a vegetarian quiche with goats cheese - the right size, perfectly balanced (not too 'eggy' as is sometimes the case), and a chicken leg with cous cous. The leg was roasted in a red pepper sauce, and the cous cous was delightfully spiced. We were spoken to in French (which we wanted to practice and were glad for it) and were not rushed at any point - service was really good with the two friendly-faced guys being attentive, neither overbearing nor negligent. I highly recommend visiting Troc Cafe!

We didn't have anything set that we really wanted to try and just went with their recommendations. ...and first things first--we enjoyed our brunch. It was delicious. The mix of sweet and savory; as well as the warm and cold side of the board was great balance. We really had a lovely time. Here comes the "But"... the only thing that bothered us a bit was the guy helping us (manager/owner?) was a bit defensive (almost argumentative) on his explanation between hot chocolate drink and hot cocoa. I'm pretty sure he's very knowledgeable and passionate about his line of work...but his attitude should be turned down a notch or two for the folks that may not know (like us) a lot about the subject.

I had the "lido" breakfast which had two different types of cheese, fresh cheese, jam, butter, tomatoes, gooseberry and some different types of bread. Not large portions but nothing fantastic as I had hoped. And it made my wallet lighter by 10€ which is to say quite a bit for a Klein portion. Overall a disappointment. Either reduce the price or get more imaginative with the breakfast is my recommendation.

Wir wurden indirekt und höflich rausgezwungen und ich kann nicht sagen, dass es mich besonders freute.Allerdings muss man fairerweise erwähnen, dass wir bereits beim Betreten des Cafés darauf hingewiesen wurden, dass sie pünktlich schließen würden. Die Torten waren qualitativ sehr gut, frisch und für unseren Geschmack sehr lecker (nicht zu süß wie im Café Endle (http://alphafuchs.com/2013/02/17/confiserie-endle-karlsruhe/) ) ich kann nur sagen, dass wir definitiv ein weiteres Mal ins Kaffeehaus Schmidt gehen werden, um unsere Lieblingstorten zu probieren.
