Sankt Pauli is a beer garden in Neustadt with a menu of economical bar food, explained both in German and in English (to my happiness). And the fine folks at Sankt Pauli were nice enough to take me through the one portion of the menu which was NOT translated into English: the "Specials Section". Here we find slightly more ambitious (and pricey) selections. I assumed this was what I wanted to order. So, what I got was a cut of meat, ordered medium, with a Swiss Rosti and some salad. What came out was tasty but definitely "off". The meat, ordered medium rare came out medium-well. The rosti was very tasty but unfortunately not fresh. Clearly reheated and some of it was just damn hard to chew. The salad was fine. The sparkling water was not so much.
Even my friend, who lives close by mentioned that it was not his favorite place. read more
