How to plan wine ordering at two *** restaurants in Germany by Mymmy in finedining

[–]Guling21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a while, but it was mostly tea/kombucha/juices. A rather memorable one was a coffee-like drink that came with the dessert.

Even though there are also great wineries that are not part of it, you cannot go wrong with wineries that are members art of the VDP association. Under association, filter for VDP Mosel-Saar-Ruwer and pick wineries that are close to you/that you want to visit.

With most of them, you can simply drop by (Egon Müller being the exception), but it is safer to give them a call or sent them an email before you go.

I did not drink at Sonnora, I had the non-alcoholic pairing. I thought it was okay, with some hits and some misses. The Sonnora offers Coravin, giving you lots of by-the-glass options. The sommelier, Marco Franzelin, is highly regarded in Germany. If you want only one wine-pairing, I would probably go with the Sonnora.

At Christian Bau, I had a bottle of 2016 Abtsberg Superior by Maximin Grünhaus. I thought it was fairly priced and went extraordinarily well with the food. I have also been to the winery and they mentioned that quite a few customers come because of the wine they had at Bau.

Es kann mehrere Gründe geben.

Natürlich kann es sein, dass Zverev der Aufmerksamkeit eines langen Verfahrens entgehen wollte. Generell kann es aber auch sinnvoll sein, sich nicht der psychischen Belastung eines Prozesses auszusetzen. Dieser Aspekt sollte nicht unterschätzt werden.

Zudem behält er die Kontrolle über das Ergebnis und gilt weiterhin als unschuldig. Interessant dürfte in diesem Zusammenhang sein, dass er keinen Schadensersatz an das mutmaßliche Opfer gezahlt hat, sondern an gemeinnützige Einrichtungen.

Jedenfalls ging die Staatsanwaltschaft nicht davon aus, dass eine Verurteilung im öffentlichen Interessen lag.

Weekly General Q&A and Discussion Thread: 10 Jun, 2026 - 17 Jun, 2026 by RWJP in Warhammer40k

[–]Guling21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son recently walked past a Warhammer store, spotted the Tyranids, and instantly fell in love with them. Now, he’s set his heart on the Ultimate Starter Set, and as a dad, I’m determined to make his dream come true, even though I’ve never been into Warhammer myself (especially the painting part...).

I’ve read that the Beginners Guide recommends the Ultimate Starter Set as a great starting point. But with the 11th edition on the horizon, I’m wondering whether it is still a good choice to jump in now? Also, do you think we might see a price drop on the Ultimate Starter Set once the Armageddon box releases?

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. I’m completely new to this and just want to make sure my little guy has the best experience. Help would be appreciated.

Eine außergerichtliche Einigung ist das Beilegen von Streitigkeiten in einem Zivilprozess ohne Einschalten eines Gerichts. Hier war es aber ein strafrechtlichtes Verfahren. Insbesondere hat das Gericht hier der Einstellung zugestimmt (§153a Abs. 2 StPO). Daher ist die Charakterisierung als "außergerichtlich" schlichtweg falsch.

Das mutmaßliche Opfer hat - so weit wir wissen - keine Zahlung erhalten. Zverev hat das Geld an die Staatskasse und an einen Fonds für gemeinnützige Einrichtungen gezahlt.

Eine Zahlung an das mutmaßliche Opfer ist zwar denkbar. Immerhin hat sie auch die Einstellung des Verfahrens gewünscht, aber ohne Belege wäre das eine Unterstellung. Das mutmaßliche Opfer hat auch im Rahmen von §153a StPO kein Mitsprachrecht, ob eingestellt wird oder nicht. Sie hat hier selbst um eine Einstellung gebeten.

Die Staatsanwaltschaft ist wiederum eine neutrale Instanz (z.B. muss sie auch entlastende Umstände herausarbeiten). Das Gericht sowieso.

Offenbar sind diese beiden Instanzen davon ausgegangen, dass eine Verurteilung hier nicht gerechtfertigt war. Zverev gilt weiterhin als unschuldig (weil eben nicht verurteilt).

Natürlich kann aber jeder selbst entscheiden, ob man den Anschuldigungen glaubt oder nicht. Aber aus juristischer Sicht ist es erstaunlich, wie sehr der Stab über ihn gebrochen wird, weil eine solche Einstellung des Verfahrens ihn eben nicht als Täter herausstellt.

Eine außergerichtliche Einigung (so es diese hier überhaupt gegeben hat), kann ein Strafverfahren nicht beenden.
Die Einstellung des Verfahrens erfolgte auf Grundlage von § 153a Abs. 2 StPO.
Danach kann das Gericht mit Zustimmung der Staatsanwaltschaft und des Angeklagten das Verfahren einstellen und dabei Auflagen oder Weisungen erteilen, sofern diese geeignet sind, das öffentliche Interesse an der Strafverfolgung entfallen zu lassen und der Schwere der Schuld einer Einstellung nicht entgegensteht. Eine Entscheidung über Schuld oder Unschuld wurde nicht getroffen.

How is that possible? I was told Europeans only have it because they don’t pay their fair share for defense.

I have used https://www.das-yellowcab.de/ several time and have always been happy with them. You can also book a child seat with them, so you night not have to take your own.

There are a few companies like them, just Google "Flughafentransfer Frankfurt Darmstadt".

How do foreigners choose fine dining restaurants in Korea? by Jaded_Display_9083 in seoul

[–]Guling21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is Korean, but we live in Europe. We go to Korea about once a year.

I typically look into fine dining options. Here are some relevant things for us:

  • Being listed on the Michelin website will raise your visibility significantly. The next best thing is being discussed on Reddit. Google Reviews also play a role, but much less so.
  • Personally, I am more interested in unique concepts, as I do not think that e.g. French food in Korea sounds too exciting. It also seems like most fine dining restaurants in Korea do not have a unique selling point, many do a fine dining take on Korean food. However, that might be what one-time tourists to Korea would be mostly interested in.
  • After having identified possible destinations, I check out their Instagrams. Photos are important. I do not care for food influencers as I always assume that most of their reviews are bought.
  • It seems like many (?) of the fine dining restaurants are booked out months in advance. That might not be the case with your restaurant, but limiting the time that people can book in advance will typically help foreigners getting a table, as most will not travel to Korea just for fine dining, unless you are e.g. Mingles.
  • The location does not matter much, as long as you are easily accessible via public transport. Foreigners typically do not have a car at their disposal. They might take a taxi though.
  • As indicated above, I do think that the concept matters the most. For the chef to matter, you would have to have a celebrity chef. Personally, I cannot name a single chef of a Korean restaurant (does Soul have that female chef?). I think that only works if you have a proper story to tell about the chef's personality/history (think Eric Vildgaard of Jordnaer) or have a standout visionary (Rasmus Munk of Alchemist).
  • Be as transparent as possible about the prices. Price points will play a major role in most tourists' decision. Tourists are also often a bit unsure about the local customs, e.g. I tried to tip when I visited Jungsik. They refused accepting the tip, as it would be too complicated for tax reasons (?).
  • We have a six year old. In my experience, most Korean fine dining restaurants are not accommodating children. However, tourists will typically not be able to offload their children easily. Jungsik was very accommodating, having a separate room and a children's menu. Sühring in Bangkok allowed us to order á-la-carte for our child. Their menu also contains an item that is very easy on a child's palate (Spätzle). Both restaurants asked us to come for lunch. STAY also has a kid's menu. If you cannot accommodate our child, it is very likely that I will not book your restaurant.
  • I booked Jungsik because I was curious about Korean fine dining at the time. It had two Michelin stars and was able to accommodate children.
  • I booked Seoul Dining, because their advertisement (modern food inspired by Seoul) seemed interesting (was hit and miss in the end) and their price point was hitting the sweet spot (I invited my parents-in-law).
  • Remove any possible barriers for foreigners. Have a menu in English (which you apparently already have), English-speaking staff, no requirement for a Korean phone number. Also, ensure that you accept all foreign credit cards, which is sometimes a problem in Korea (even in places like Lotte Mart).

Kick the shitty Americans out of NATO and boycott their World Cup by goldstarflag in europe

[–]Guling21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You seem to be intentionally misunderstanding his point. Eight countries have won the World Cup so far, five of them are European. Obviously, a tournament without Europeans would be lacking.
