Imagine telling someone in the 1800s, one day people will voluntarily eat tofu and then proving them wrong for over a century. The buffet system is dangerous because you pile it high, weigh it, and dig in. Honestly a fantastic concept. Great location near the train station too, which is helpful because you may need immediate transportation after accidentally eating your body weight in all the options.

Vegan Buffet: Was the suggestion of co-workers, not my choice. Though I wanted to like this place since I do like the vegan agenda, but just couldn't get into it. And I did try a bunch of items to be fair. Nothing really stuck out to me. And a lot of the dishes tasted similar to each other.

I was there at 8.30ish and compared to cafes in Stockholm (or other large Swedish cities) it was quite empty. Giving the impression that Germans seem less keen on having breakfasts out. The different breakfasts I chose were really lovely in their own way. No1 was coffee of choice, freshly squeezed orange juice and breadroll with hummus and marinated artichokes. Lots of flavours and very very filling so lunch wasn't really an option that day. The no2 breakfast on the menu was coffee of choice, fresh juice and fruit muesli with non-dairy milk products of choice. Nice and breakfasty as expected. Unfortunately the coffee was the only negative both days, most cafes that use soy milk in Germany do it very well, Huber doesn't quite master the art and the soy cappuccino resp latte had an unfortunate soy tang. (Different baristas.) I would have loved to try their lunch options too, but time didn't permit. Also beware that the kitchen is open in the middle of the cafe and the ventilation isn't very effective. Your clothes and hair will most likely smell of fried onion and cabbage when you leave the place after breakfast. Friendly staff. Cash only.

It's one level where you wait in line to go around the buffet oval filled with salads and vegetarian food. The "Tatar Salad" is my favorite. Every plate comes with a roll and they have gluten-free options. Once done, they weigh your plate. It is pricey for a plate. There's plenty of seating and free WiFi.

The food is priced by weight, so you can choose exactly the quantity you think you will eat and only pay for that amount. No waste. I love that idea. I've seen it across Europe, but it's not something that you ever see in the UK. I was really pleased with the choice of vegetables and filled my place with a salad of sugar snap peas, soya beans, broccoli, then chose an escalope to go with it, along with some other delicious items. We were so delighted with our lunch that we went back for dinner. The dauphinoise potatoes (vegan of course!) were a real treat, and I loved them with lots of green beans with garlic, delicious mushrooms, some other veg, and a wee pie thing that turned out to be like a baked samosa. I finished off with a hot chocolate and a pastry/bun type thing - I'd clocked earlier that they always have vegan cakes. Hooray! They also have smoothies and juices too. Something for everyone.
