Some visitors of the IBD
+ 2025 will probably need to arrive on Wednesday:
- ExComm members so that they can meet on Thursday morning
- Part of the organisation committee to prepare the organisation office and some other things
- The odd guest who booked a pre tour
- Some visitor wanting to be on-site early
Being one ot those impacted and not keen on spending the evening alone in my hotel room or some restaurant I organise this pre-event dine around - usually called "Richtig früh Ankommer"... and here it is for IBD
+ 2025
We have several tables reserved in the "Rheinische Stuv" in Maritim Hotel since that is convenient for ExComm and organisation committee and perhaps others too and the seats will be given to IBD delegates and the organisation team foremost, obviously.
Dine around in the restaurant "Rheinische Stuv" in Maritim Hotel where you can choose from the dishes below.
You will get a coupon for the dish chosen that will be your "meal ticket" in the restaurant. Everything else you get you need to pay on-site.
- Tarte Flambée “Alsace Style“ (Flammkuchen "Elsässer Art"):
Tarte flambée "alsace style" | bacon | leek - Maritim Burger wich Cheddar Cheese Slice (Maritim Burger mit Cheddarscheibe):
Beef patty (200 g) | cucumber | tomato | onion | relish | remoulade | salad | steakhouse fries | cheddar cheese slice - Rhinish Marinated Pot Roast (Rheinischer Sauerbraten):
Traditional Rhenish pot: Marinated pot roast | raisin sauce | pumpernikel (dark bread) | red cabbage | dumplings - Slices of Roast Beef (Scheiben von Roastbeef):
Slices of roast beef | tartar sauce | roast potatoes | side salad - Mixed Leaf Sald (vegan) (Gemischter bunter Blattsalat):
Mixed leaf salad | cherry tomato | cucumber | balsamic dressing | croutons - Half a ”Rooster” (small dish!) (Halve Hahn):
Two small rolls | gouda | onions
The name of this dish translates to "half rooster" as well as in slang "have a half one" and means the latter as "half a bun" - Portion of Minced Meat (small dish!) (Portion Mett):
Portion of minced meat | two rye bread rolls | raw minced meat | butter | onions
Please note that the last two dishes are pretty small; if you want them just as starters, please select your main dish and order the starter in the restaurant in addition
As desert you might want to opt for
N'Treats (N'Leckerchen): Salted caramel cheesecake | blueberry compote | whipped cream
Hint for booking
When booking please select the dish you want to eat. The first one on the list is the default but might not quite be what you prefer; the price indicated for the other dishes is the respective price difference since the first one included. And yes, the two small dishes at the end of the list are cheaper than the default one.
If you want to e.g. join this as a couple, then book two slots and then select two dishes (be it different ones or the same for both) and the membership number or email address of the second person into the field "I book for me and...".
The reason we let you pick your dish when booking (and pay for it) is that without a pre-order quite a few restaurants can't cope with so many visitors happening by at pretty much the same time.
For annual gatherings in Germany this event is not part of the main event - but for IBD+ 2025 with potentially quite a few visitors as well as the request by the restaurant that we pre-order the food it is much more convinient for all to include it in the main event.
Please accept that members of ExComm and part of the organisation team that need to be fully awake for the ExComm meeting or to run the organisation office have the edge on this event.
The Restaurant "Rheinische Stuv" is in Martim Hotel.
When you're on the ground floor or Maritim facing the reception desk that is in the middle of the corridor the "Rheinische Stuv" is to the right and then on the left-hand side - it is a small restaurant after Sixt and Sushiso-
