GERMANY

Love at First Bite

Nothing brings people together like great food, beer, and wine. The buttery taste of freshly baked Dresden Stollen. The fl owery aroma of a crisp riesling. A bowl of Zwiebelrostbraten (roast beef with onions) paired with a refreshing Hefeweizen after enjoying the country’s unique culture, age-old traditions, and natural beauty. Germans take a lot of pride in local gastronomy and they cannot wait to share it with you.

With 300 Michelin-starred restaurants, 13 winegrowing regions, and more than 1,500 breweries, there’s no shortage of ways to savor the culinary scene. Start with a foodie tour in Berlin, sampling currywurst, kebab, and pastry; or visit Heilbronn, a historical town on the Neckar River, famous for its sprawling vineyards.

Discover the beers of North Rhine-Westphalia, from classic Kölsch to specialty brews like Bönnsch, or indulge in a fi schbrötchen (fi sh sandwich) at Hamburg’s oldest fi sh market.

For an upscale evening, stop in Nördlingen in Bavaria for award-winning chef Jockl Kaiser’s Blutwurst-G’röscht’l or get a personal recommendation from German Sommelier of the Year, Nancy Grossman at Michelin-starred Rutz in Berlin.

As the world slowly reopens, Germany welcomes you back with open arms, full plates, and enhanced protocols to ensure you stay healthy and safe throughout your travels.
