The salad was enormous and very fresh. It was all delicious.
A medium-dry, moderately-priced bottle of Nonnenheimer Sonnenbichl Müller-Thurgau was a perfect choice. There's also a good selection of local wines available, the Spätburgunder Rotwein Trocken is particularly recommended.

Restaurant Alte Post
The Alte Post Restaurant has tables outside under an expanse of plane trees. Inside the atmosphere is pleasant with colorful linens and small bouquets of fresh flowers on each table
The menu features the usual items found on almost every menu in Germany but with a few twists. Schweinsteak Mexicaine (pork steak, Mexican style), for example. A tasty Maultaschen Vegetarisch, best described as the German version of ravioli, consisted of two large pasta pillows, stuffed with spinach, topped with lots of sautéed onions and served with a better than average salad plate.
It was impossible to assess service as a sudden downpour just after placing our order resulted in a mad dash inside and general chaos from which there was no recovery.
