Going to German Restaurant!! HELP!!

  • I have eaten some German food in the past, but have never been to a German restaurant. That is where me and my husband are going to have dinner tomorrow night with some friends. I have no idea what healthy choices may be available. Can anyone give me some suggestions of what to look for?

    Thanks!

  • Roast Chicken is a good option, stay away from the spaetzle, its nice and buttery.

    Germans typically start out each meal with an amazing array of salads -- cabbage, shredded celariac, carrot, green salad. These may unfortunately be in either a vinegarette or a cream based dressing. What I did last week in Germany was drain off the dressing.

    In my recollection, most restaurants do have roast chicken, some sort of roast pork and then lots of things in cream sauces.

    good luck.

  • Thanks. I did have the roast chicken. It was just - okay. DH enjoyed the wide beer selection and I stuck to my 0 point water.
