[QUOTE=Optimist;1630220]Manny51. Fair point. I think I misunderstood.[/QUOTE]No worries. Perhaps I drew that conversation out a little too much. I just like to talk about food!
BTW, any good cheap foodie recommendations? I'll be back in Berlin in a couple of months.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1629718]T Some of the pork cuts are deliciously decadent. But yeah, for anything longer than that, you can get tired of sausages, sauerkraut, and schweinbraten. .[/QUOTE]These are stereotypes. This is not German food. It is like saying Japanese only eat Sushi, English only fish & chips, Americans only burgers, Italians only Pizza, Spanish only Paella.
HB.

HB.[/QUOTE]What's the stereotype? That this is not German food? OR that this is all that Germans eat?
I was claiming the former. If it is NOT traditional German food, that you are claiming counter to everything I have read, saw and heard. I would challenge you to elaborate.

HB.[/QUOTE]Pork, sausages, schnitzel, sauerkraut, potato salad, bier and all that isn't German food and drink? Now you've gone and overstated your point! Yes it is German food, and clearly you must mean that it's not the "only" German food, or the only kind of food that Germans eat. Nor was anybody saying that it is the only kind either. The only tasty dish I was ever able to count on at Oase under the old food set-up and offerings was the pork schnitzel with potatoes LOL! As German as it gets hahaha!

I know that people generally criticize German food, and I got tired of sausages pretty quick. But a good schnitzel--tenderized on the inside with a crispy fried breading on the outside, is to absolutely die for. Good ones don't require any sauce.
Yes. My fault. I clearly meant "not the only German food". ;)

Just curious but has any locals ever experienced a pig roast or a smoked briquet? Either in Germany or abroad. I always find the clubs bbq's "lacking", there's more to grill then just sausage and chicken. Only one club did a decent bbq in my opinion and it was over hardwood coals. I did visit Sharks the day after one of their parties where they had bbq'd up part of a cow (a buddy visiting on the day of the party and said the food was spectacular) and the leftover's were pretty good. Always thought a club like Oase could easily do a pig roast every weekend with the amount of guests in attendance.
If they cared about what food they serve they could do a pig roast for BBQ. Unfortunately most clubs don't. World and Oase have been grilling the same 2 or 3 meats for the last 10 years.

HB.[/QUOTE]Agreed. A big BBQ would be a money loser. Why do a big bbq, when burgers and sausags will do just fine.
If I was an FKK owner, I would do burgers and sausages every day. Sausages and burgers are cheap. Yet cook them on a grill and suddenly its outdoorsy, fun, and delicious. Buy a big tub of kraut salad, make some french fries in the kitchen, and it is ON! I would take that any day over the more typical "gourmet" dish of beef or pork in cream sauce.
It would only suck for the person who has to clean the grill every day!

HB[/QUOTE]More they care, more they could mess the food up, so I rather hope that they keep menu more simple like Pasta stand and pizza stand, and they can focus on those two type of food with different variety with solid salad bar and soup stand. I mean they cannot mess those up and could offer varieties with such simple menu with different topping, sauce etc.

It was pretty good.
If you care to offer good food and variety, this is not a problem. Hire the right people and make sure to pay them ok. Look at Living Room, 5 E, Palace, Paradise. It is possible to serve decent fresh food in a club.

I think about food not just the quality of food served also the ambience and style of service is very important. We can compare these like real restaurants. So for instance magnum has great food but restaurant there is just clostrophobic. Also not a friendly place. Samya loosing points because they stupidly allow girls approach customers in restaurant and they can blow up your meal. Who likes his dck be folded during having a steak? I think number one is Artemis. It has the advantage of both good quality food and nice ambience. I think interaction with girls shouldn't be completely prohibited but it must be limited to company like it is done in Artemis. It is always a pleasure eating with a beautiful woman. Also Oase has the second tier. Because of cost and quality of food it s very behind of Artemis. The third one is definitely GT brugen i make it third after despite the very good quality of the food served because it is very far away of action and girls are usually nor present there..Just my two cents.
Note:GT has a very cute waitress.I dont know her name but she is slim and has blonde short hair...Regulars will remember her...

You are trying to have your meal and just came back from a session and some 7 trying to convince you for another one. This happened to me in Samya...I appreciate Artemis and Oase policy about this. Very professional.
