Dinner was at the Früh brewery and restaurant in Cologne. A large and busy establishement with many rooms. Once you ordered beer, they kept giving you a new full glass as soon as yours looked low on brew. This is my oxtail soup with pumpernickel roll. The tab for food and number of brews was penciled on a beer coaster on our table.
