    I paid a visit to a German restaurant in my city last night. I expected it to be mediocre, but it was really quite good. Even the waittress was German. This leads me to wonder...how is the Schnitzel, Kenshin?

    Is that a restaurant were you can still look into the kitchen were you see them pounding the schnitzel to make it smaller (and better)?

    I went there with my schoolclass last year when we went to Rome (you can't get to Rome in 1 day, we slept at Bergtesgarden ... well 5 km from it). Most of them didn't want to eat meat the coming week anymore

    I think I've only had Schnitzel (that's just veal right??) a few times, but maybe I've had it more. It was fairly good, and a wonderful change from all of the sausage, which though varied and tasty gets old. I actually have a major problem in the food department, my Mutti uses loads and loads of butter, and in Vermont we used very very little butter. To make a can of beans she puts a thing of butter (250g maybe??) in a pot and then turns on the stove, then she adds the can of beans. That's just wrong.....

    Otherwise all is good right now, I've dropped Latin and Deutsch (with a 10th grade class...) so now I have another history course and an IT course!

    German beer and some German people also qualify as some of the most wonderful things to come out of Germany, but it is undeniable that Rammstein ranks up there with the beer and other really great stuff that this country has produced.

    Schnitzel is more of an austria thing, when they are served the right way, with lemon and a peace of salted fish, delicious.

    Salted fish with schnitzel?
    I find pork is better as a schnitzel, since veal, especially pounded to the thinness of a wafer, can be tasteless.
    Of course, nothing accompanies schnitzel as well as a nice Kartoffelsalat.

    You can have veal Schnitzel, but the standard is pork. Chicken was also offered at the restaurant I attended, but I just raised my eyebrow at that and ignored it. As well, one of the meals on the Abendkarte was a venison Schnitzel. My father tells me it was excellent.

    Why did you drop German class?

    Rammstein! Granted, they're decent, but Die Toten Hosen is where German music is at. Easily the best band ever to come out of this wonderful country.

    Bah, die Toten Hosen are boring.
