A Schneeball (snowball pastry) in Rothenburg ob der Tauber
Würste mit Sauerkraut (sausages with sauerkraut) in Regensburg
Schnitzel mit Pommes Frites (breaded cutlet with french fries)
A Brezn-Semmel (pretzel sandwich) filled with cheese, meat, and vegetables
I felt curious at first, then delighted -- and honestly, very happy. Some foods were new, while others reminded me of comfort foods back home. Trying regional specialties made me feel connected to the places I visited. As Germans say, “Das schmeckt!” (That tastes good!)
