If you leave it long enough you start loving places for their averageness. Actually, unassuming…read moretraditional German pubs like this have become a rarity ... Absolutely everything about this place is a bit naff, starting with the name which implies a romantic hideaway in the mountains. Instead it is a pub housed in an ugly bungalow in the suburbs of a small town in Lower Saxony. I didn't grow up around here but was still overcome by a sense of nostalgia - a regular gave me a funny look when I took that photo of a cigarette machine, these have long disappeared from British establishments. My sister has been coming here ever since she went to the nearby university. But students, old and young, make up only part of the clientele. The place was packed with diners of all ages on a Saturday night - Suedklause is now at least twice as big as in the old days, having taken over the unit next door. The decor hasn't been updated much since the 70's and neither has the menu, hence the many comments on tinned salads (there's a long list of German language reviews) which used to be acceptable accompaniments to your favourite meat dish back then. I actually had no idea that what makes a proper "currywurst" is not just the typical curry sauce but the fact that the sausage itself is deep fried rather than simply fried or grilled. The portions are massive and the fries the best I have had in ages. I rolled home fat and happy. I don't think they have many vegetarian options on the menu, but that is hardly the point. People come here for guilty pleasures of deep fried feel good food. Apparently the chicken dinners are legendary.

We ordered a bottle of German red wine and courgette cannelloni to start. For our main course we enjoyed the white asparagus and salmon dish as well as the weiner schnitzel and vegetables plate. The food was great. I wish the salmon portion had been a little larger, but the large amount of asparagus does fill you up. We would comeback in the future. Thank you for a great experience.
