Romantik Der Kleine Prinz, Baden-Baden

Advantages: a pretty small town with an elegant flair
Disadvantages: none

...Last year in February I had some free days and decided to spend one in Baden-Baden, a small but famous town in the southwest of Germany set in a wooded valley of the northern Black Forest, 70 km west of Stuttgart, 30 km south of Karlsruhe and 40 km northeast of Strasbourg in France. The name Baden-Baden, meaning the town of Baden in the state of Baden, was adopted to differentiate it from another spa town, Baden-bei-Wien (near Vienna), translated into English, not quite correctly but easy to remember,l the name of the town would be Spa-Spa. I had been there before, many years ago, in fact I didn´t know how many and why I had gone there! This time I had a clear plan, though, I wanted to see a new museum and the collection of contemporary art therein.

Advantages: The attractions and the peace and quietness
Disadvantages: The temprature scan get hot!!

...I grew up in the LIttle Karoo and the place was an ostrich mecca! Still is but they mostly sell the meat which is very healthy. The Klein Karoo has lots of attractions. The main town is Oudtshoorn and most of the tourism attraction are near it. There's the Kango Caves which is a must to see. Then there are the Highgate and Safari Ostrich farms where you can ride on ostriches. On the way to the Kango caves there's the buffelsdrift game farm where you can walk with elephants and enjoy a nice meal and have a view over the buffelsdrift dam. There are also a place near the Cango caves where you can ride on camels. There are also a few whine estates near Oudtshoorn where you can see how they produce one of our local wines Grundheim. There are also the crocodile farm and snakepark. You would like peace and quietness of the Little Karoo.... Read review

Advantages: Good vegetarian food in a nice atmosphere
Disadvantages: Some dishes need improvement; service can be slow

...You can survive as a vegetarian in Bavaria. Thanks to Munich's Prinz Myshkin, you can even eat out. *** Restaurant Review *** Located in Munich's historic center, a short walk from both Marienplatz and Sendlinger Tor, Prinz Myshkin offers an extensive, all-vegetarian menu in an architecturally impressive setting of vaulted ceilings and open spaces. Prinz Myshkin's ambitious attitude towards vegetarian cuisine is refreshing in a city so often characterized by the stereotypical wurst. The cuisine is primarily comfort-based and while Italian and Indian influences obviously dominate here, Prinz Myshkin's chefs make an effort to showcase vegetarian dishes from other ethnic cuisines as well. Mexican, Greek, Thai, and, oh yes, even German specialties all appear on the lengthy menu (available in English) and on the daily... Read review
