So I had a good and bad experience here as a tourist.
Good: Tried a true ApfelStrudel. Did you know these strudels are technically wrapped in dough? Mind blown. The filling was pretty good, the was dough-y.
Bad: My mom came here in the morning and was waiting for her turn to order. There was a non asian woman standing right next to her but was obviously behind her. When it was my mom's turn to order, she stepped up to order but the employee pointed to the non asian customer next to her and was like, "no it's her turn". My mom said, "excuse me?
