Wendl-dietrich-str. 5. rick's cafe is an american-mexican restaurant with turkish owners. the staff are friendly, however some do not speak english so having a little knowledge of german will help. this is a convenient place for people staying at the youth hostel on wendl-dietrich-strasse u-bahn station rotkreuzplatz, because it is a minute walk on the same street.
