Humming streets of German cities offer unforgettable gastronomic experiences. Take your time to try iconic German dishes such as Bratwurst (German sausage), Sauerkraut (fermented cabbage), and Schnitzel (breaded and fried meat cutlet). They are real must-tries!
Your tour of Germany won’t be complete without savoring its worldwide renowned bread and pretzels that come in a variety of flavors. Dark rye bread and soft, salted pretzels are staples of Germany’s rich baking tradition.

As mentioned above, Germany is actively adopting and rethinking international food traditions. Walking down the bustling streets of Germany’s major cities, you’ll find a wide range of restaurants offering various cuisines of the world.
