More than a century of food and community-building bring Cleveland’s Stockyards neighborhood together at Sachsenheim Hall Lent is one of the best times to visit the German social club and bar for its popular fish fry along with other German specialties like schnitzel and paprikash a wild taco menu — but we’ll get to that later three-floor brick building stands tall at 7001 Denison Ave. with a marquee awning looming over front doors translating to “Saxon Home.” The structure traces back to the late 1800s along with black-and-white photos of bands Decades’ worth of patrons — seen smiling in the framed prints hung on the wood-paneled walls — have grown and hosted their lives’ biggest celebrations in the building the secretary of the Alliance of Transylvanian Saxons’s Branch 4 remembers her childhood in the ’50s and ’60s full of Sachsenheim Hall festivities which crept into the late-night hours “I remember as a child coming home with my parents at four in the morning and my father making us get up for church at 8 a.m.,” remembers Miller-Malue “Even after a long night at the Sachsenheim every Saxon was at church on Sunday morning.” Entire generations of Clevelanders have called the space theirs “Customers that are my age come in here ‘My grandparents got married upstairs We’ve been coming here for years,’” Osborne says but the people who do know about it cherish it.” The reasonably priced dining event — featuring beer-battered or baked cod ($10.95) and swai ($9.95) a shrimp basket ($10.95) or fish and chips ($7.95) — has become one of its most popular days of business that gets pretty crazy,” Osborne says “Tuesdays and Fridays are our busiest days.” RELATED: Fish Fry-Days: What The Tradition Means To Cleveland Fish frys on Fridays and tacos on Tuesdays — but don’t forget about wing Wednesdays and burger Thursdays there’s whatever-the-chefs-feel-like-making Saturdays and Sundays They have to still do our staples; we have to have schnitzel we always have to have paprikash,” Osborne says The taco menu has earned a big following in Cleveland It’s no wonder why: Nearly 40 types are available for order mixing together traditional Mexican fillings like carnitas listed alongside flavors that only make sense at a place like Sachsenheim And they’re quite the deal at $2.50 a pop You can thank former chef Scott “Grumpy” Lindell for the whole spinoff known for founding Grumpy’s Cafe in Tremont formerly ran Sachsenheim’s kitchen for more than 20 years before moving out of state to care for sick family members in 2020 along with Lindell’s menus of fan-favorite recipes RELATED: Cleveland's 30 Best Taco Dishes So how — and why — does a historic German restaurant get into the taco game in the first place? And how are those tacos so good that Sachsenheim cracked the top 10 Cleveland Mexican restaurants as compiled by Stacker’s Cleveland Yelp data It was all in the name of efficiency; Lindell started the special years ago as a way to reduce waste from butchering processes for steaks It was an inexpensive way to make tacos,” Osborne says “But in that is a variety: a variety so huge because we’re working with many different products for seafood So he’s developed that Taco Tuesday into a list that’s 40 items long 40 ridiculous choices to choose from.” I stopped by a busy barroom with a friend to try a few of the creations My favorite was the punchy tequila lime chicken taco seconded by the sweet-and-savory honey garlic pork I enjoyed the stuffed cabbage taco — a little spicy but still warm and comforting The chicken paprikash taco is a fun addition but the simple compositions succeed thanks to more intensely flavored meat options.  all the options paired well with a pint of German lager ($5) and a platter of barbecue pork nachos A sweet blueberry empanada ($2.75) served as a not-too-sweet dessert This Tuesday night presented quite the cultural mish-mash which is fitting for this Stockyards standout eatery that’s always been known as a home for its surrounding community “It kind of evolved with the way the neighborhood evolved and I’ve had a lot of them tell me this place is a fixture,” Osborne says it’s become a home for various cultures.” RELATED: I Remember When: Sachsenheim Hall For more updates about Cleveland, sign up for our Cleveland Magazine Daily newsletter Cleveland Magazine is also available in print, publishing 12 times a year with immersive features helpful guides and beautiful photography and design (Not that there's anything wrong with that style of food; it's delicious and is responsible for popularizing Mexican food in the United States.) But Mexican food means more than that It reflects Mexico's diverse population—shaped by waves of immigration—and has proliferated throughout the U.S., showcasing the cuisine in all its complexity and regionality. Mexico has 32 distinct regional styles of cooking and thanks to immigrant chefs and the rise of promising culinarians of Mexican descent looking to share their signature dishes diners are reframing their idea of "Mexican food." According to a 2024 Pew Research Center analysis of SafeGraph data, 1 in 10 restaurants in the U.S. serve Mexican food counties have at least one Mexican restaurant The analysis also reveals that California and Texas are home to a majority of the Mexican American population and together host 2 out of 5 Mexican restaurants in the country These findings serve as a testament to the influence Mexican cuisine has had and continues to have in America Which begs the question: Where does one go for the best old-school Mexican restaurants loncheras slinging tacos out of a half-window and innovative modern Mexican food pushing culinary boundaries To help you out, Stacker compiled a list of the highest-rated Mexican restaurants in the Cleveland area based on diners' reviews on Yelp as of February 2025 Restaurants with at least 20 reviews tagged as "Mexican" on Yelp within a 10-kilometer radius of Cleveland were included some restaurants featured may serve other food items besides Mexican food in an effort to highlight independent businesses and local chains those with more than 50 locations nationally Keep reading to see if your favorite Mexican spot made the list or to discover a new restaurant to try -

TUP GmbH & Co. KG - Warehouse Management Solutions The fashion and lifestyle company Breuninger was founded in 1881 by Eduard Breuninger and is now one of the leading omnichannel department stores in Europe. For over 140 years, Breuninger has been setting high standards in the areas of fashion, beauty and lifestyle with an exclusive selection of international designer brands and selected newcomer brands. The Breuninger goods service center was opened in 2019 in the Eichwald industrial estate in Sachsenheim with a total floor area of around 76,000 square meters. The WDZ in Sachsenheim combines the areas of merchandise processing, supplying stationary retail and online shipping, content production with a photo and text studio, the Breuninger confectionery, an administration department and an employee canteen. Thanks to the individual nature of the TUP software, we benefit from a high degree of flexibility and rapid implementation of changes and adaptations. TUP.WMS was the perfect fit for our requirements – this is still evident today. Dr. Frank Postel talks about the special features and benefits of working with us from his CTO perspective. Even at this early stage, we received good advice from our TUP colleagues, who of course contributed their experience from other projects. That helped us a lot because Sachsenheim was a new and, above all, unique project for us. We were therefore very grateful for the wealth of expertise that was available in Stutensee. Goran Zukolo, Lead Product Owner and Domain Architect for the logistics area, gives us an insight into the collaboration with us from his planning perspective. We managed to pull off a go-live despite enormous challenges: the coronavirus pandemic, huge incoming orders in e-commerce and we still managed it with confidence. This shows that the collaboration was excellent and that the right topics were addressed at the right time. Head of Department Reza Mohammadi focuses on the daily operational processes in the warehouse. For me, however, it was simply great to see that we have optimized the routes here at the WDZ, that everything has been standardized and digitally supported, that training is now easier and a lot of thought has been given to throughput and productivity. So the relocation here was definitely a highlight for me. Thorben Pleister, team leader in goods receipt, provides an insight into the initial situation and the integration of his department’s requirements. Thanks to its flexibility, TUP’s combinable warehouse management software always delivers the most effective solution and is also highly reusable. © 2024 TUP GmbH & Co.

mainly due to external economic factors and the current conditions in Germany - will mainly be relocated to Tokod (H) and the Sachsenheim site will subsequently be closed The transfer of production to the state-of-the-art plant in Tokod will ensure the long-term competitiveness of the business which is subject to the consultation of employee representatives would preserve a total of around 250 of the current 450 workplaces in Sachsenheim and Vaihingen Feintool plans to implement the relocation in a socially responsible manner The existing Feintool plant in Jessen (DE) is also affected by the realignment to a lesser extent The necessary restructuring expenses will impact earnings in 2024 primarily Actively shaping the technological transformation The planned realignment requires time and careful preparation in coordination with customers and internal specialist departments The change will lead to a sustainable improvement in the results of the Business Unit Stamping this will lead to savings of CHF 15 million per year in the medium term CEO Feintool: “Feintool is confronted with a very challenging market situation that requires decisive action The decision to realign the Business Unit Stamping and to relocate parts of the production was carefully considered and taken we are ensuring that Feintool will emerge stronger from the current challenging situation in a sustainable way and can actively shape the technological transformation in the automotive industry and the transition to renewable energies.” Feintool International Holding AGIndustriering 83250 LyssSwitzerland The press release can be downloaded from the following link:  Press Release (PDF) The German automotive supplier Dräxlmaier will invest 200 million euros in the construction of a production site in the Romanian city of Timisoara over the next six years Battery systems for electrified vehicles are to be produced there The news was broken via a media report and a statement by the mayor of Timisoara the project will be implemented in several stages and will involve the construction of more than 40,000 square metres of production Who the batteries will be for was not revealed yet Dräxlmaier has been producing 800-volt battery systems for the Porsche Taycan in Sachsenheim near Stuttgart since 2019 the Bavarian company has built their first battery assembly plant on an area of 10,000 square metres In Leipzig, the automotive supplier plans to start assembling battery systems in July 2021 in a 28,000 square metre hall not far from the Porsche plant in the north of Leipzig.

into the collaboration from his strategic perspective What is your position and role in the company My name is Frank Postel and I am Breuninger’s Chief Technical Officer What does digital product management involve it includes all digital products with a focus on the retail environment HR and finance systems to merchandise management logistics systems and so-called consumer systems as well as all CRM and customer interaction processes that we offer digitally to our employees via our in-house app and to our customers via our Breuninger app That’s a good introduction to our joint project the aim of which was to consolidate several locations in the Sachsenheim distribution center we had a very fragmented logistics system that was to be centralized with the construction of our goods service center in Sachsenheim During the set-up of the intralogistics and the corresponding IT systems I took over responsibility for the project what were your expectations regarding the collaboration with us we operate one of the leading fashion service centers in Europe with a high degree of automation and correspondingly complex processes we had fragmented logistics and low automation expectations were very high for everyone involved The benchmark for TUP was not only to develop the system side of the asset on the basis of which the current WMS was created but also to bring comprehensive expertise to the project it was particularly important to me that TUP would act as a partner at eye level and make the right decisions for Breuninger and the project even in difficult situations How did the cooperation between TUP and Breuninger evolve on a personal and professional level the way we work together is one of TUP’s strengths they always acted in a solution-oriented and very cooperative manner The project teams in particular worked very well together The personal aspect was and is an important success factor here TUP’s team members have a high level of expertise and They have taken on and mastered the challenges of this major project with enormous personal commitment response time and quality of the cooperation I found the flexible and responsive manner in which TUP acted to be particularly positive: whenever we discussed scaling options there was a high readiness to implement them Such commitment cannot be taken for granted as it requires enormous expertise and comprehensive knowledge in order to familiarize oneself with the respective subject matter TUP made this investment in the situations in which we needed it and we always achieved a strong result in this way What were the important moments for you in the project phases I followed the progress of the project on the basis of its key stages and evaluated it the integration of the Warehouse Control System (WCS) the materials handling technology and other components such as the small parts storage system (automatic bin storage) special attention was paid to goods processing as well as the final test phase and go-live we at Breuninger had very ambitious e-commerce growth plans our logistics were able to absorb this volume An important proof that the solution that was designed and implemented was and still is a very sustainable one were there any particular milestones or solutions that stood out I would see the classic hot phases of such an implementation as milestones we have massively adapted our process landscape at the time to the new possibilities I find the enormous scalability that enabled us to handle this rush remarkable what advantages do you see in the solutions we provide We chose TUP because we liked this approach which I would describe in my words as “asset software” I mentioned at the beginning that with Sachsenheim we have a complex warehouse that unites both B2B and e-commerce logistics with all its facets under one roof That is why we also need a system that is adaptable and does not map processes with a standardization claim I believe that this was and is an essential success factor of the project The individual customization of the TUP software gives us a high degree of flexibility and a high speed in implementing changes and adjustments TUP.WMS was exactly what we needed – this is still evident today TUP’s combinable warehouse management software always delivers the most effective solution and is also highly reusable is starting series production of the 800-volt total battery system for the Porsche Taycan the Bavarian company built their first battery assembly plant on an area of 10,000 sqm highly automated production facilities have been set up in the building over the recent months: “The battery modules are set automatically additional components are assembled and extensive tests are finally carried out the new site will also house a development department dedicated to innovations in the battery sector,” a press statement said Details of the overall battery system for the Porsche Taycan have neither been revealed by the supplier nor by Porsche to date in January it leaked out that the series Taycan will be equipped with around 90 kWh battery capacity and a 22 kW charger (AC) on board A short time later it was

warehouse in Sachsenheim In the second part of the interview series who gives an insight into the previous situation and the integration of his department’s requirements What is your position in the company and what tasks does it involve I am the team leader in goods receipt and therefore the disciplinary and technical manager for the area employee management and personnel planning How and when did you join the project and where did you previously work I was previously at the former location in Leinfelden There were the first test environments and the open questions were: “What should the structure be like?” “Are there any technical wishes we still have?” and “What should the systemic processes be like?” Because we mostly deal with planners or software specialists your expectations of the collaboration from an operational perspective are very interesting was to work together in a solution-oriented and partnership-based manner A solution-oriented approach is particularly important in our dynamic environment Has this expectation also been fulfilled in the cooperation on a professional and personal level that was definitely the case in the points of contact I had with TUP we were always kept up to date on how things were progressing and which problems were being solved I found it very positive that I was always kept informed and that issues were prioritized accordingly the speed of response and also the quality of the collaboration I never had the feeling that anything was stagnating or that things were being ignored or downplayed Any issues or problems we had were taken up We also always received feedback within a suitable timeframe How was the transition from the old logistics world to the new one We had a lot of manual processes that we had to solve with significantly more staff The only way to handle a large volume there was with more people technology has made a lot of things much easier for us Is there a particular solution that stands out for you comparing the old shipping system with the new one was a big talking point We already had some standardization of the workstations at the old location But for me it was simply great to see how we have optimized the routes here at the WDZ that everything is standardized and digitally supported that training is now easier and that a lot of thought has been given to throughput and productivity I remember very well the first time I came into the new dispatch hall with the employees from the old locations and was briefly stunned into silence because we immediately realized what we could now achieve How did you perceive the support during the various phases I can say that it made no difference to me whether we were still in the go-live the support and the feeling that everything was being handled promptly were always very good Thank you very much for the interview and for your time
