Food & drink
Sample delicacies in Germany
Though German food may conjure up images of sausage and sauerkraut, authentic German foods are pork-based and include many potato dishes and hearty stews. Depending on where in the country you dine, you may also find fresh seafood dishes and locally-grown produce. Sauerbraten, a roast-beef stew with hearty meat, vinegar and various spices, often comes with boiled potatoes and red cabbage. Schweinshaxe, a ham hock or pork knuckle slow-roasted until the meat falls off the bone, is another popular Bavarian dish. You should also try Rinderroulade, a beef roll with slices of bacon, onions, pickles and mustard finished in red wine. Whatever your craving, you’ll find plenty of authentic German dishes in restaurants and eateries across the country, all within reach of your holiday rental.
