Olde Hansa, right? Well, yeah. It's a tourist trap. I sometimes go there
at winter, for the ambience and a warm spicy drink and baked apples, and
they do a wicked mushroom soup, but anything more substantial is usually
not very edible.
In fact, some time ago there were rumors that they don't even have a
real kitchen on the premises, but they _do_ really have a chef, so go
figure.
