There is so much more to German dining than sausages and beer. Just like Germany’s culture, history, and its people, the culinary delights that you will find are rich and varied. Just remember that the part of the country you are in will always determine the menu that you might be enjoying. Seafood abounds if you’re visiting the coast by the North or the Baltic Sea. Crayfish pastries, succulent smoked salmon, and thick fish chowders are what you are most likely to order off the menu.
However, when you’re in southern Germany, especially near the Black Forest, then wild game is the bill of fare with boar, quail, and venison being the more common menu entrees. The more popular favorites are meat dishes and the most popular is the Schnitzel (cutlet) which is a universal menu item in this part of the country. Typically, is breaded, but it is always delicious. You can find pork versions of Schnitzel, but it is most commonly made with veal.
