Pork knuckle with dumplings in a Dunkel beer sauce was pretty much the only decent restaurant meal we had in Germany over nearly three weeks this year.
Most German restaurant food is pretty grim, unadventurous, and stodgy, as evidenced again here in Lenny's pics.
Top tip for food in Germany is to try one of the "Turks" (kebabs shops) that are everywhere. Some are takeaway only, but many have a few tables outside and even sell a beer to wash it down. Not normally a great kebab fan, but they also do things like falafels. A soft flour tortilla stuffed full of salad, sauerkraut, humous and falafels for about 7 or 8 euros beats pretty much everything else in Germany.
