Thank you, Duvel! Watching this thread is like I'm being there.. I'm living in Eastern Europe and I was in Berlin only once at the age of 14 (now I'm 23) when I was at swimming competition introducing my country at the international arena. These photos made me a bit nostalgic...

One of the main sources of noise in restaurants and cafes is background music. It helps create a lively atmosphere, but sometimes sounds too loud. Restaurant critic for The Washington Post, Tom Sietsema, notes that he has been paying close attention to this problem: “I've been talking about this for ten years. This is a source of constant irritation." In its reviews, Sietsma includes a noise level rating with decibel counts along with ratings of food quality. But you also need background noise in the restaurant so that people don’t hear them slurping.

There's nothing better than crispy onions on a gas station hot dog!
