"Saturdays in January for shopping in the city, at 5 degrees, continuous rain, wonderful! Hunger and thirst prevails around 18:30. Now until the tribe of Italians go through the city? I'm looking at Hasimausi and wondering how it was with a pizza. The enthusiasm is within limits. Your heart-freshing answer: Because of me. A year ago, this is part of a Gastro system chain. represented throughout Germany and neighbouring countries. Quasi Vapiano with service. We are not actually a follower of system gastronomy, but you can try it. About 10 people outside the door. No, smokers who inhale in spite of continuous rain. You don't like anything else. We're entering. First impression: Full, full. Second impression: loud, loud. Third impression: A very friendly Mister Service welcomes us. Just as friendly I ask for a table for 2 people, no reserved we did not. He didn't mean a problem, he'd take about 10 minutes, wait for the bar until then. There I am. Wet jacket, triefing umbrella, a wardrobe, a umbrella stand, both not in sight. Feeling good is not. We are asked by the friendly bar mixer for our drinks. Hasimausi wants a beer. I'll join you. Ruck, after less than 2 minutes there are two glasses egg cream from Bitburg on the bar. The formerly quoted 7 minutes Pils is probably just a legend. I just want to put the egg cream to my thirst, the friendly Mister Service appears and brings us to a table. Great, that really went fast. Where the table for 2 people is actually a table, as one finds such table linen in coffee houses. But directly next to it a wardrobe stand, but without umbrella stand. I then put the screen on the ground a little tasty. Well, we're sitting. The distance to the left side table is about 50 cm, the same applies to the distance from the right side table. In other words: Full, noisy and even tight. A look into the map, pizza, pasta, salads, antipasta etc. We agree quickly and a friendly female service is already at the table. We're going to geduzt, which doesn't bother us. We had already brought drinks from the bar, so our very simple order is: twice Antipasti twice Pizza Gamberetti . Answer of the service lady: Antipasti is out. On Saturday, around 19:00, Antipasti is out, so Primetime is in the middle of the Rushour? Now it does not match my nature to discuss this with the service power. What are you doing? As we did not find an alternative in the map, we reduced to 2 pizzas. The service lady left the table. Hasimausi shook his head. I was just thinking about buying the usual grains of bread on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. in the morning at the baker, and the baker of my trust would answer me: grains of bread are out. As already said, the neighboring tables were neighboring very close. I've been used to it by now. There was nothing from the conversations on the two neighboring tables, but it was too loud. Something else, however, generated my attention. Pizza was consumed at both tables. No pasta, no salads, but pizza. So I had a view of 8 pizzas, all in the format XXL. So pizzas that reminded me of my 18 inch rims of my car, although I had not read any of pizzas in special sizes in the map. Apparently, all pizzas here had this format. I looked up and out about 5 meters away, our friendly service shows me a highly stretched thumb. From this distance, she's been plucking my empty glass, and I guess she wanted to know if there were any other eggplant cream. I nodded. Shortly afterwards, she appeared with the drink and two round paper sheets of table tops, which strongly reminded of baking paper. Our coffee table was covered with it. Shortly afterwards, the two 18 inch pizzas were served. Proves with proper shrimps. Now it became clear why the paper had been spread on the table before. The 18 inch pizzas stood very far beyond the edge of the plate. The edges came to lie on the table and the pseudo decoration hygiene baking paper. Whether here or elsewhere, in contrast to Hasimausi, I belong to the professing action of the opponents of the Pizza edges. In other words, the uncovered edge of a pizza, whether thick or thin, I always cut off and do not consume it. Since the wide edge here was no longer on the plate, but rather far beyond the plate, the cutting off of the edge came close to an operative intervention. Thanks to heaven and above all L 'Osteria, the knife was sharp. I therefore managed to separate the edge from the occupied part of the pizza without suffering serious injuries and nothing from the pizza landed on the floor. That wouldn't have been so bad, there was my umbrella on the floor. Hasimausi had seen me with head shakes. After removing the edge about 25% from the entire pizza, the pizza had thus reduced the occupied part to a completely normal size. From the 18 inch pizza, a normal German Italian pizza had become. And the quality of the pizza? Here you have to pay tribute to the system gastronomy. The pizza was very thin, the dough very tasty, with shrimps of a neat quality was not saved. Although I'm not a very special pizza fan, nor a pizza expert, it was really delicious. The close 12, euro for each pizza were completely fine. Hasimausi had consumed the edge completely, unlike almost all guests in the direct environment. We had no room for a dessert, and Italian Dolci is not my case. I always prefer a small cheese selection. But this does not offer the card in the L 'Osteria. In this respect, we limited ourselves to Espressi and Grappa. Conclusion: Our impression was that the guest Klientel from the category "Main thing Teller" is happy to go. These giant pizzas suggest you get a lot of money here. It is clear that we were satisfied with the quality. Attention, flott and very friendly service. In the case of system gastronomy, one always has the impression that the tables must be occupied as 10 times and more as possible in the evening. Everything goes very fast and the atmosphere full, narrow and loud does not necessarily invite to a longer stay. In other circumstances, we would certainly have drank one or the other and had a little chat, but the ambience was missing. A look into the sanitary area. Nice, chic design. Warm water comes from the two cranes on the sink, which is unfortunately still not a standard even in very good restaurants. The hand wash basin has a XXL format similar to the pizzas. Estimated width about 2 meters. You could have baby swimming in it. There is also a really acoustic hit. Otherwise, in pizzerias older canzoni e.g. by Giana Nannini Bello e impossibili . Not here in the L 'Osteria. While after the consumption of 3 or 4 Bitburger eggplant cream, the bubble must be emptied extensively, one hears from the ceiling speaker a language course in Italian. The speaker is very accentuating an Italian word and then the German translation. Great idea. Thus, not only are local pizzerias competing, but also Italian courses at the Volkshochschule. Grazie mille, Grazie tante"
