Restaurant Stadion

Feines libanesisches Essen, in einem einfachen Restaurant, zu einem völlig akzeptablen Preis…
Werde gerne wieder hin gehen…

What a bizarre experience.
We arrived around 1830 on a Friday, with reservation. The restaurant was somewhat busy, but not full. We were seated at a table by the window – comfortable, though the tablecloth wasn’t entirely clean.
We ordered mezze for two – a selection of 3 hot and 3 cold small plates to share. We asked if we could select the mezze – it wasn’t entirely clear from the menu whether it was customer’s choice or the chef’s. The waitress said yes, then tossed her writing pad on the table, told us to write down our selections, then walked away. When I say ‘tossed’, I mean she dropped, not placed, the pad onto the table. Both my husband and I were rather taken aback at the apparent hostility.
Our order was placed. We asked to keep a menu in case we wished to order more later. We were sourly told no, there weren’t enough to go around.
I finished my deci of wine while waiting on our food. I asked to order tea This involved two stops by the waitress – she couldn’t take my request on the fly and had to leave and come back again for me to order. There was more strangeness and hostility, and confusion as to the fact the tea was black/​mint rather than a selection of either/​or (granted, my German isn’t the best in the world, but Mr. N is a native Swiss speaker, so it wasn’t a language barrier thing) but finally I managed to order.
Food was decent, though flatbread wasn’t particularly fresh. Portions were large enough we couldn’t finish everything. The tea was delicious.
