The old part of town is a Bramble of Lille shops and cafes antique stores and wine joints All of them packed tighter than the Gin anal Lonic line at a Shriner s convention. In Spile of the sights though. Jumbo was just sort of moping a Long looking unhappy a and generally exhibit ing i he sense of humor of a slab of aged beef. Until we stumbled on Chi Gasthaus Goldener Lime thai is. Now i Gid to Tell you in Advance that dumb goes for roasted pork the Way most women go for a handbag factory outlet store and Light Oul in front of the Goldener Lowe were these signs advertising suckling pig roasted three different ways every Day.

You Are not going to find the Goldener Lowe listed in that Little red Book the tire people put out to is one of these real Long narrow plates with a Center aisle and tables kind of littered on either Side and a Little serving counter at the very Back where the help gets your silverware and pours your Beers and generally hangs Oul when the business is slow. Flu counter is also Headquarters for the owner a big balding Guy in the kind of suit you could once see going through Ellis Island on a regular basis he spent Mosi of the time we were i Here drinking Coffee and counting the till and Chai smoking. Your decor Here is Early Post War with a heavy Budapest farmhouse influence. Vou got your assortment of Copper serving utensils nailed to the go rho Goldener Lone is not much on loot but hit Grutt soming pig. Walls Arul Jill pity of Lulf  and arrangements of dried Flowers and a Civ exposed fake beams and a pair of chandeliers or two. A Lille shelf runs around the room that is lined with Boll Les of hungarian wine that have already been emptied by somebody i do not know who. Maybe the Guy in the suit. They also Gol a 1084 Calendar hanging up with a picture of some peasants painting eggs and in one Corner there is one of them big portable Jam boxes tuned into an easy listening. The bathrooms Are Oul the Hack door and Down .1 walk and into another building. Lumbo and me grabbed a table at the Back by the counter and ordered up a couple of brews and began checking Oul the menu a pretty hefty document featuring German and hungarian specialities your goulash your Lamb a Lille beef Here and there. All the standards Are in there and almost All the dishes come served up with homemade noodles or dumplings and feature gravies and sauces and other typical Type hungarian garnishes.

The food was Oul in no Lime at All big slabs of roasted pig and i am talking real big Here the inner meal moist and Rich the outer skin roasted crisper than a new Box of Saltine crackers jumbo s version came pretty much Plain As far As we could figure Oul leaving us to wonder what this East european style business is All about. He did get a whole tray of dumplings though swimming in a Nice sauce and lined up like the return rack at a Duck pin Alley there was no question about my Gypsy version. We re talking big chunks of peppers and onions All mixed up in a Nice tangy sauce. The noodles were a Little Gummy bul not bad and obviously homemade. We also both got a salad one of them Sloppy mixed jobs with a thin sauce and nothing in there of particular Merit. Later kicked Back comfortably Over coffees and sipping at a couple of those Clear liquors hat most european countries Are famous for. Jumbo and me worked of our rating. For starters the roast pig is excellent and comes served either Plain Wilh the Gypsy treatment or in this Here mysterious East european style.
