C.M. Kruger posted:Somewhat dated (originally published in 1949, which is the copy my local library had) and it seemed like the rest of Europe was barely mentioned, but I found it interesting and I certainly learned a lot about potatoes.

Falscher Hase ("fake rabbit") actually contains meat (it's just a funny name for meatloaf, probably coming from a time when it would be baked in a special pan). However, if you find yourselves in Cologne and want to eat chicken, don't order the half cock.

Blast Fantasto posted:I find stuff like this, or Mock Turtle Soup, where an ingredient is changed or substituted for economic reasons but then the substitution becomes its own dish fascinating. You mean that there are no Mock Turtles? Has Lewis Carroll lied to me?

By popular demand posted:From my quick internet search it seems that coffee was always much more liked in Austria than the rest of Germany, Vienna in particular had many of the earliest coffeehouses. In which many socialists and anarchists met and debated revolution. Not really surprising, since European coffee culture started in Vienna (when the Ottomans had to leave a lot of stuff behind after their failed siege, including coffee).

Halloween Jack posted:I'm still kind of baffled by most Asian carryout style places because I've never familiarized myself with the most common dishes and what they mean. Is kung pao style good? If it's good with chicken is it good with shrimp? gently caress, I can't remember. I'm trying to figure out what vegetables come with it and if they're overcooked. Kung Pao anything is good, yo. All the variants, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt-pyFj2t2g

If you want to eat insects, go all out with something like cockchafer soup. Oh wait. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ny8bZxjeAMk

Lead out in cuffs posted:He ends up passing out, having wandered the streets of Munich sipping from a bottle of schnapps while looking for the HB, then having downed three or more beers, without having remembered to eat anything. These would have been three or more Maß beer, btw.
