Die negativen Kritiken können wir nicht nachvollziehen. Wir haben mittags dort gegessen (aufgrund der Witterung haben wir das Museum nicht verlassen wollen) und die Gerichte haben alle gut geschmeckt. Das Café war voll besetzt und der Service super. Wer das Haus der Geschichte besucht: man sitzt dort gut und bequem. Die Preise für Speisen und Getränke sind relativ hoch, einziges Manko. Zu den Kuchen und Torten können wir nichts sagen.

"Als Café im Museum ist das Essen ziemlich gut gemacht, es gibt viele Leute und der Service ist schnell." 作为博物馆里的咖啡厅,餐算做的很好了,人很多,上餐不慢。
