Trip to Germany Planned

[Randy Caparoso]

Well, one thing I discovered recently about Germany: you'll never eat so much pork and sausages in your life!

In the Mosel, however, I had this great fresh trout in butter (with a Halbtrocken Riesling) at the Marienburg, a restaurant situated on a precipitous loop near Zell with the most breath taking view of the winding, snake-like river and its spectacular vineyards around the postcard pretty town of Piesport. Check it out!

Riesling also goes great with curry; which is why, Johanes Selbach had related to me, the best wine list in the town of Bernkastel is in an Indian restaurant (which I didn't try -- I get enough curry in Hawaii!).
