Hospital Board: Bonjour Tristesse!

your will agree with me: There must be something lazy, you mind wanders off into other spheres, while one should devote one thing really 100 percent. Example: You are sitting for the first time with the appointment of a nice place, and while she / he tries to include more intensive contact, your thoughts wander off. At earlier friends, the ARD crime scene, you take in this moment would actually find much more interesting to the nasty letter from the property manager. Very clear - the unfortunate Date partner has already lost, the matter should abbrechen.Geht so quickly, too.

How can you tell that this is a Sunday breakfast? Exactly: the egg (bottom right) Unfortunately, hard and almost cold..

The food is similar. Who hallucinates about sweets and treats, as she / he is sitting right in front of stuffed dishes, should the provided with food most likely not be happy. In the restaurant I end in this case, the meal and never go back to the place of unfulfilled aspirations. In a hospital this option is unfortunately not usually open (if it is not in a priceless private clinic): one is almost transported back to childhood - eating is what's on the table, the alternative is HUNGER.

This series of pictures documenting my diet on 20 Anniversary of German unity in the other in all respects, quite excellent hospital in the middle of the city . About quality, freshness and nutritional value of foods will not discuss I intended flawlessly. And produce with a few Euros per patient per day, four meals, is certainly a challenge for the cook. But to explain the meaning of this lengthy introduction, after a few days ago Food Service indulge my roommate and I during the meal about food. Good food, different food, variety, desire for Schmackofatz. The main dishes are not even the core problem. there are three other meals, arouse the desire.

Yes, this is our Sunday roast. Pork neck with Bavarian cabbage and boiled potatoes. The announced "fresh fruit" turns out to be apple. And no, I have manipulated the colors of the image NOT.

It's the edge of meals: in their monotony, which drive us to delirium: Morning: meat products (salami, ham, sausage - all similar in taste and saltiness), the eternal rubber cheese. The same old varieties of honey and jam from the Plastiknapf. With bread or rolls. Coffee and cake in the afternoon, dear, meant loving served. What do you get? The caricature of a cake. See below ... This time of year I want a piece of plum cake, a fresh apple pie, even one ring cake of juicy batter. For all patients is not drin.Wäre more expensive, would bake the kitchens themselves instead of finished products to buy?

Nibble, nibble, crumbs, bread crumbs. Coffee time! Milk and sugar to taste, bread from the package.

Das klassische deutsche Abendbrot: Mitschbrot, Leberwurst, Schinken, Käse. Statt einem Bierchen (gehört auch nicht ins Spital, ich geb's zu) schlürfen wir Pfefferminztee. Willkommene Abwechslung: Die Nudelsuppe. Auf Butter oder Margarine hatte ich diesmal freiwillig verzichtet.

Am Abend bringen die Küchendamen und -herren dann eine Variation des Morgenangebots. Nur statt Mett- gibt es nun Leberwurst, Gurkenscheiben und Tomatenecken substituieren Marmelade und Honig, Schnittbrot (Schwarz-, Misch-, Weißbrot) ersetzt die Semmeln. Halleluja. Mein Mitpatient fing an, von Bratheringen und Bratkartoffeln zu reden, ich von Miesmuscheln in Weinsud. An dieser Stelle I have to stop writing about alternatives. Excessive salivation is bad for the keyboard ..

All right, tonight there is again the German dinner, tomorrow the surprise free breakfast plate. The lunch I may finally pick themselves back completely. Because in the morning I am released from my Nahrungsunmündigkeit. My poor roommate must dream on.

I have moved for a few days in Berlin-Mitte. Where others leave, Pubcrawl organize and warm up for club nights, where I now live in the interim. Admittedly, not entirely voluntary. My hotel with full board St. Hedwig is and is a Catholic hospital, just in the neighborhood to Hackescher Markt and the gallery mile Auguststrasse.

The food is the day to structure and is quite comfortable: Breakfast at 7:30 clock, around 12 noon, at 14.30 two biscuits and a cup of brewed coffee. Classic German supper between the ZDF "heute" and news. Several times a day very friendly ladies scurry into the room and ask the patient to evaluate needs. The food is quite enjoyable. Very German, very tasty, if also with smears. Well, I'm here for the get well, not for a gourmet trip health insurance costs. Small sample?

Hach, was how much nicer the food in the hospital, if these things were stupid, which have a bearing again.

are offered three meals a day to choose from. Vollkost (strangely identical with diabetic version), light food and vegetarian Thursday was ok. Turkey stew with a little too soft broccoli, Cooked mashed potatoes and a little strawberry yogurt from the cup. On Friday I was attracted by the Vegetarian peppers with rice and tomato salad. This coleslaw and applesauce for dessert.

I love stuffed peppers - but this Exemplar musste ich leider nach den ersten Bissen einen harschen Korb geben. Erstens war die Schote viel zu stark gegart - sie zerfiel beinahe von selbst zu rotem Brei -, zweitens konnte ich die Bestandteile der Füllung nicht abschließend identifizieren. Matschig-kremige Konsistenz mit einem diffusen Rübengeschmack. Was könnte das gewesen sein?  Vermutlich hätte ich besser das Rührei mit Rahmspinat genommen, meinem Bettnachbarn mundete es sichtlich. Gegenüber dem Gemüsegericht hätte ich auch noch knapp 350 Kalorien gespart.

Samstag ist hier offensichtlich Suppen- und Nudeltag. Suppe finde ja immer einen Gewinn, entschied mich gegen Kohlrabieintopf (waren das die Reste der Paprikafüllung?) sowie bunten Nudeln und wählte den deftigen Pichelsteiner Eintopf mit Karamellpudding. Überraschend lecker und laut Speiseplan nur 274 Kalorien. 

Noch ein Wort zu den Früh- und Spätmahlzeiten: Morgens gibt es Brötchen - so viel wie man möchte - aber mehr als zwei nehme ich nie, Wurst, Käse, Marmelade, Honig in reichlicher Menge. Fettreduzierte Butter oder Margarine stehen zur Auswahl. Abends fast das Gleiche. nur dass man Weiß-, Grau- oder Schwarzbrot haben kann. Oder alle drei. Heute gab es statt Gurkenscheiben und Tomatenecken einen richtigen Tomatensalat. Eine willkommene Abwechslung, und sehr erfrischend.

Am morgigen Sonntag steht - wer hätte es gedacht -  Braten auf der Menu: pork mti Bavarian cabbage, boiled potatoes and fresh Obst.Vollkommen surprised me given the Calories: 437 Kalorien.Die of only two alternatives chicken breast fillet in mustard sauce and eggs in advance to lose the pig. Let's see. Picture to follow.
