Germany is not typically well-known for its cuisine, but the country actually has a wide variety of food to offer visitors outside of bratwurst. Following are just a few of the top foods visitors should try while in Germany:
- Doner kebab: Found everywhere in Germany, a doner kebab consists of thin slices of meat in a special type of bread. Originally introduced by Turkish residents of the country, the dish can be made with chicken or beef, and is normally accompanied by lettuce and a yogurt sauce.
- Schnitzel: Another dish found throughout the country, schnitzel is a thinned piece of chicken, veal, or pork that is breaded. It is one of the more reasonably-priced national specialty dishes and is often served with potatoes or a salad and a hollandaise-like sauce.
- Berliner: also called pfannkuchen, a Berliner is a small pastry filled with various jams. It common in a wide range of German bakeries and is particularly popular for New Year’s Eve celebrations.
- Schwarzwalder kirschtorte: Better known as Black Forest cake, this dessert made with cream, cherries, chocolate, and schnapps is known around the world. When ordering the cake in Germany, visitors receive huge slices. The cake is typically served with a German cherry liqueur.
