Lunch

We will have a lunch break around 13:00. In contrast to the last years we do not have specific places reserved this year. Instead, the plan is for people to organize themselfes in small groups and get to a place suited for their current degree of hungrieness. Close to the sprint location we have a wide array of restaurants and cafés available. See a list of them compiled underneath:
