And looky at the yummy quality of the average youth hostel food you got for your money (EF12 was already worth a positive mention; I'm not sure whether standards went up, or whether they just liked us). I do remember some Eurofurences in them olden times where congoers went to the next McDonald's to avoid dinner. Now that is desperation ;D
Maybe it's 15 bucks per (attended) buffet, but I expect a significant quality improvement. Compared with the current fast food prices, even happy-meal wise, this is not all that much (and if those buffets are anything like those I remember from my last hotel, you will not need to attend two each day...). Let's see, it's nine months until EF, so if I save an extra ten bucks a month, I'll be good for 6 buffets...

Oh, yes - the part about quality's certainly true. I actually don't remember much of the food at most EFs, but I still have memories of rather inedible stuff from EF5. :)

Um, no offense, but I've heard that from restaurants before. :-\
"Oh yes sir! All vegitarian! Contains only fish!"
"Oh yes sir! Finest cucumber ice cream! Always plenty in stock in case of vegitarian guests!"
Personally I always get a little concerned when the chips are not marked as vegitarian. I mean how much gelatin do you really need to cook a sliced potato? Oh well. I'm sure we'll all find a way to cope when we get there.

Some grocery stores in Suhl, there are more.
The distance shown is from the Ringberg Hotel.
As been said before, just team up with someone who has a car. ;)
Rewe-markt Glock Ilmenauer Str. 2, distance: 4.0 km (about 6 minutes)
Penny-markt Rimbachstr. 53, distance: 5.7 km (about 10 minutes)
Lidl Rennsteigstr. 20, distance: 6.6 km (about 11 minutes)
Aldi Rennsteigstr. 15, distance: 6.8 km (about 12 minutes)
Then Quachdai. Gothaer Str. 4, distance: 5.1 km (about 8 minutes)
Maybe this information is useful to some, by the way found using Google Earth.

The reason why chips/fries don't tend to be marked as Vegetarian is due to the fact that some places cook them in the same oil they use for meat. Good eh?
Cheers,
