What I ate today - the food thread

Longview Vineyard at Macclesfield in Adelaide Hills

Great food. Wines were nice but not outstanding for the price.

Bonus - got in the car and got an email to say they were part of shop small

As I have mentioned in the 2020 Travel Plans thread, we are going to Berlin next for the reunion of wife's German family roots. Yesterday we had an early Xmas lunch with a group of her relatives. It was a chance to discuss plans for the re-union as some of them will also be going. The five cousins are from Singapore, Kota Kinabulu and Sandaken.

In line with the Berlin trip the food had a bit of a German theme.

We started off with a Berlin favourite, Currywurst (served with home made spiced Berlin ketchup) and chips.

The main course included Beef Stroganoff, Bratkartoffein (Pan fried potatoes with bacon & onion, Rotkohl (Sweet/Sour Red Cabbage), Schnitzel, Wurst with sauerkraut, potato salad etc
