The Germans love food and drink festivals...and I admire them for that.
We spent a recent afternoon at the Stuttgarter Weindorf. Nothing like a festival where it's just booth after booth of fabulous local wine and food.
So many choices, I finally settled on a plate of mushrooms and spaetzle, followed by a glass of Bottwartal Kellerei Trollinger. Trollinger is a light red wine produced in our area of Germany, perfect for this mid-afternoon treat.
Sadly, I was so full after this that I had to pass on the waffle with raspberries and cream. Heaven help me when the beer festivals start at the end of this month.

ReplyDeletePS Thank you for the comments!
Yum! That looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteThose mushrooms are mouth-watering!
ReplyDeleteWhat's spaetzle? That sausage looks good, too - must be some kind of wurst. And the mushrooms - mouthwatering. Lovely shots.
ReplyDeleteThanks...it was fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWolynski: Spaetzle is a German noodle...like a thick egg pasta....and I think the sausages in the photo were Rotbratwurst.
