The Tiger’s favorite waffles
There are a lot of waffle recipes. Everyone thinks he has to spice up the waffles with secret, special, unusual and above all completely unnecessary ingredients. All nonsense! The best waffles are made of very simple ingredients – it depends only on the correct mixing ratio. My dear friend Katja…
Free with the KVB to the Berg Country Museum
Today, there was something very special at the Cologne transport companies, the KVB: Everyone was allowed to drive around without a ticket for free. Of course, I wanted to take advantage of that and chose an exciting destination, the Berg Country Museum for mining, craft and trade in Bensberg. So…
By rail bus around Cologne

The secret of the Chinese Dog – Day 1
René von Tiger – Consulting Detective Day 1 – Excitement in the palace I received the call for help from a colleague from London, who faced a seemingly unsolvable puzzle. Rumors had surfaced that a mysterious Chinese dog would take control of the city. Was it about the code name…
