Most everyone knows that there are a lot of different sausages in Germany, including the one most commonly known in the United States, Bratwurst. We have had the opportunity to try several varieties of wursts and most have been extremely good. They are often, but not always, served with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes or on a bun with mustard.
We have seen many people eating Frankfurt’s gift to the world, the frankfurter, but we have yet to try the local version for ourselves. Perhaps it is because, once we moved into our apartment, we now consider ourselves to be Frankfurters 😀. In addition to trying the various sausages, we have also had a couple different versions of schnitzel. They also have been very delicious, however neither of these German staples are very health conscious.
We look forward to trying some of these same dishes in some of the smaller hamlets to see how they vary throughout the different regions of Germany, but we will need to do a lot of walking to justify eating that much rich food. As for our favorite meal so far, we will have to say that they were each good in their own way and perhaps the quintessential experience is yet to be had. Obviously there is a wide variety of food in Frankfurt and we have eaten many different styles of food since we have arrived, but we’ll share some of those meals later.
They all look yummy, especially the potatoes! Definitely worth a few extra walks. 😉
It is definitely good that we are walking, some of the none German food has been even richer 🙂
I don’t even like sausages, and I’m hungry!
Not healthy, but good 🙂
Yum. And I don’t know if it was my imagination, but in Germany the potatoes tasted high-quality and better too?
We would agree, for some reason they do seem to have better potatoes
You made my day! I thought I was somehow imagining it – you know, that good feeling when you’re a tourist 🙂 So enjoy!
Have you tried the curry wurst?
We have not tried the curry west yet. But definitely plan to 🙂
