"Direkt am See gelegen. Es gibt "nur" Waffeln und eine kleine Karte an herzhaften Speisen. Das ist gut! Bei den Waffeln hätten wir uns gewünscht, dass die Toppings separat gereicht worden wären. Leider war ein Großteil der Waffel leider aufgeweicht vom Eis bzw. Apfelmus und das Erlebnis weniger gut als es sein hätte können."
