This is the part of town where I was born and here I am returning 40 years later to dine in my first stomping grounds in German Town! I had by recommendation of Anthony Bourdain the Schweineshax which is a broiled pork shank. The skin is left on so it's cooks up extra crispy and protects the meat from getting... more

You will feel like you've just stepped into Deutschland when you walk into Heidelberg. The heavy german women will be happy to serve you up a tasty half liter of franciskaner or if you're really thirsty, a 3 liter boot! Break the boot and you won't get your down payment back.

A definite favourite of mine. It's a bit pricey, but you do get bang for your buck, so make sure to be hungry when you go! more

Come here when you have a craving for meat, especially sausage. You will swear off meat for a day or two afterwards. The sausage platter is always a good choice. You get to sample a bunch of different stuff, especially if you have a large group. Everyone will get a taste of everything including pig knuckle! Potato pancakes are good,... more
