"This is already a strange phenomenon: all places – on urban waste roads, on former Brachland, in redesigned village amidst – are cleverly arranged branches of bakery confectionery café conglomerates from the ground. Where there was apparently no need before, the homely furnished localities are now filled with young mothers who spend the mornings while drinking coffee, or with hungry pensioners at the lunch table or with all car charges from craftsmen on assembly tour. The family-owned company Raisch, located in Calw, is currently expanding very strongly and defends its area successfully against the also highly aspiring Platzhirsche Sehne and Wanner. Nevertheless, I am surprised to find a new location in Raisch at the Dagersheimer Hauptstrasse. Where the local post was formerly located, a new building complex residing with bank, pharmacy, doctor, Raisch branch etc. pp. There is plenty of free parking before – especially important at this point. On the way back from a rural appointment, in the late morning I'm in a bleeding tiredness. Time for a coffee break. At Raisch attracts as a current offer: every hot drink as you choose for 1.85 euros. I choose a large coffee that can be consumed in a large cup, a cardboard cup or a Recup cup. At the self-service counter there is a flashy cleanliness and I am kindly served. By 11:30, the “Muntermacher Breakfast Buffet” stands 7.90 euros, without drinks and offers a very tasty looking potpourri of various baked goods, jam, ham and salami, salmon and cheese, agitator, fruit salad and yogurt, greenery. Everything very attractively presented and optimally illuminated. There are two daily changing lunches for 6,90 Euro/ 7,90 Euro. I decided to test today's offer: Cordon Bleu pork, roasted potatoes, and small mixed salad for 7.90 euros. The self-service counter is upgraded at the point half twelve. The portions are lush and impressive. The Cordon Bleu covered with plentiful panade, the roast potatoes well browned and not too fat, on the salad buffet you can use well eight different salads yourself. All in all appealing mainstream for hungry mauls, however no culinary revelation also does not have to, for this price and the possible limited possibilities of the kitchen. A look at the weekly plan shows further pleasing arrangements at a reasonable price: beef gulash, filled pork belly, noodle pan with mushrooms and vegetables, cratch noodles with peasant sausage, salmon sauce in white wine. All with a supplemental salad. Almost you forget the original offer of baked goods, cakes and cakes. Matthias Raisch may even call himself “Brot-Sommelier”. Whatever that is. “What kind of bread would you recommend to this fresh cheese?” The service is of open friendliness, but sometimes still has something unhappy and clumsy. As I learn, the locality was only opened in July – perhaps there is still a period of incorporation... The ambience resembles a huge, chic dining room with hip furniture and first-class lighting. There is probably a lot of money and an ambitious interior designer behind it. The toilets are also very appealing and well maintained. The clientele forms the whole range from random customer to local regular customers and duz friends. As you have met in earlier times at the village fountain or at the church, you sit here at the Cappuccino. Become an interesting sociological study."
