SHOWME AROUND DRESDEN

There are two simple reasons to definitely pay a visit to the Old Betting Office. In the backyard you will find one of the most beautiful summer gardens that Dresden Neustadt has to offer and the food is truly top class. But be careful, the location is so popular with Dresden residents that you can hardly get a place in the evenings without a reservation. Reasons enough to introduce you to the restaurant close to Albertplatz in more detail today.

Do you want a solid breakfast for a good start to the day? It should also be healthy and cheap - maybe even vegetarian or vegan?! Anyone who thinks that finding something like that in the old town center is a hopeless case, should head to the AHA Cafe at the Kreuzkirche. Sure, the sandwich with a coffee to go is available at every bakery right around the corner for €6-7, but at Aha you get really good quality, a quiet place in the sun and thus the better breakfast for the same money. The AHA has been in Dresden for as long as I can remember. The nice thing about it is that you get regional quality here. The AHA sources all the ingredients used from regional retailers, i.e. either from the wholesaler Naturkost Erfurt or regional suppliers such as the organic farm in Mahlitzsch, the goat farm Lauterbach or the traditional bakery Heller. Sugar is only used here in unrefined form and the tea and coffee is generally fair trade. All vegetarians and vegans can look forward to this, as most of the varied offerings on the menu come without meat. The location can only be recommended, as the extremely central location right next to the Altmarkt and Kreuzkirche is worth its weight in gold, especially for tourists. It is quiet and you will hardly be disturbed by car noise. In the summer months, you also get a lot of sun in the outdoor areas until around 12/1 p.m. Later, the curch will cast it's shadow.
