| Hmmm...the Rauchverbot (smoking ban) was butchered up on 1 August, to allow proprieters of small pubs (under 75 m^2) where "food plays a background role to drinking" (*) to decide if they want to allow smoking or not. I've not been through Forchheim with an eye on the Brauereigaststätten since then, so I don't know what effect, if any, the change in the law has had on them. (* As if this should matter!) Hebendanz may be smaller than 75 qm. If so, then they don't have to operate as a "Raucherclub" any more, but just simply as a smoking place. If they are larger than 75 qm, then I think they must now be smoke-free. I believe the change in the law killed the Raucherclub "loophole". But I'm not sure. Either way, I'll patronise the Keller, but not the Gaststätte, since they don't want my custom. |
