Bautzen (Budysin), Germany: Wjelbik restaurant; restaurant revies

Wjelbik restaurant

Kornstr. 7, +49 3591 42060. L-D daily.

Diners at Wjelbik restaurant are greeted traditionally with a large tray of fresh bread and salt, then seated in a cave-like room with and arched stone ceiling. Food is traditional Sorbian fare, perhaps a broth soup with tiny meatballs and egg whites, followed by beef slices with horseradish gravy and boiled potatoes. A phrase in one of the traditional Sorbian songs goes, “We’ll never meet as young as we are again, but we might meet as happy as we are again!” Hotel rooms are also available.
