Heidelberg, city of philosophers and allegedly potential guinea pig for the nuclear bomb. Sweet irony prescribes the fact that Schnitzelbank adheres to the Japanese custom of sharing communal tables. With every bite of local Maultaschen or Wurstsalat you praise the fact that no Enola Gay has ever flown over the city. The place is crowded, wine – Grau- or Weissburgunder – is served by 0.25 litres and it is well attended by our American friends from across the pond due to the Heidelberg US Military Facilities. Leonard Cohen nearly became a prof in philosophy at the local university. One of Germany’s finest gems.
