Craving French toast? I have just the place for you.
Ten minutes from Ramstein’s West Gate, Sander’s Café is a warm, pleasant café with a lovely, simple menu and friendly staff.
My friends and I went for breakfast on a peaceful Sunday morning.
We breezed through the sliding doors and seated ourselves after a friendly greeting from the man behind the coffee bar.
The scent of the cakes and pies from the pastry case rolled over us enticingly. The coffee menu made my mouth water, offering such treats as macchiatos, lattes and
cappuccinos, all attractively displayed on a fold-out picture menu.
I chose a caramel macchiato and was pleased with the quick service, as well as the quality and taste.
My husband had an espresso, hot and rich. Before long, I was served two pieces of
perfect French toast with a side of creamy butter and rich syrup.
One friend received an exquisitely-arranged salad with red peppers and golden corn dancing on the plate. My husband had a pepper-studded omelet accompanied by sausage and potatoes. We could barely keep up our conversation between bites of our yummy food.
The front sliding door was kept busy as customers came in and out, buying baked goods from the front case to take home and enjoy, stopping for coffee and eating with friends.
It was a completely enjoyable morning that could have easily lasted into the afternoon. Sander’s Cafe is a hard place to leave.
