Grandpa´s Birthday Cake


We visited grandpa today as it is his birthday. We had a nice talk and enjoyed his day while eating some cakes. One of the cakes is called “Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte” and the cake is called Black Forest gateau in english. The other cake is a “Erdbeer-Rolle” which could be called “Strawberry Roll” translated in english. Pretty tasty cakes! As always, grandpa had much to tell and I really like to listen as he can tell you much life stories! He sometimes really can´t stop talking but I think this is a family syndrome. Friends told me that I do talk … Continue reading Grandpa´s Birthday Cake

Roast Potatos, Junket and Omelette with Vegetables


Very common german cuisine… Roast potatos, junket and omelette with vegetables! I love it so much. It´s what I call culinary delight. If I am proud about anything german then it is our german cuisine. While I still eat other things and international stuff too, german food is simply awesome. Fortunately the husband of my mother is really good when he swings the cooking spoon and I really like to eat there if I am invited. But I think I mentioned it pretty often on my blog. 🙂 Continue reading Roast Potatos, Junket and Omelette with Vegetables

If this does not look tasty…


Above you can see excelent german cuisine. Yes I go so far to call it excelent. Again the husband of my mother did swing the cooking spoon and what you see above is the result. Extremely delicious, really. I still wonder why he never became a cook, I mean jobwise. It´s funny. Because he cooks way better than the cooks of many local restaurants. He is always proud if I tell him and in my opinion he really can be proud as it is no lie. Above you can see beef with potatos, red cabbage, paprika and carrots. Do you … Continue reading If this does not look tasty…

Turkish tasty Bulgur Salad


There is a turkish fruit shop and bakery not far away from my appartement. I go shopping there since over five years or maybe more. The prices for fruits and vegetables and other things are pretty reasonable there. More favorable and tasty than in any other shop I know. It´s my favorite shop for such things. It´s a family-run shop. A man with his woman and son. I’m on very good terms with them and always if I go there we have some nice talking. I like that so much and it is such a difference to many other shops. … Continue reading Turkish tasty Bulgur Salad
