I am really enjoying all of the wonderful food here in Germany, but frankly there are 2 things wrong with it. One it’s Italian, and 2 it’s somewhat expensive. Breakfast is not that bad. Well not if you like bread.
(Typical German breakfast)
Every morning i have 2 pieces of bread with some Nutella, and i take 2 sandwiches for lunch. There isn't much of an option for my lunch sandwiches, mostly because I'm not supposed to take them. But i get sandwiches with salami and Swiss cheese. They are good enough to get me by. For lunch we really have a few good options. There is a little Asian restaurant where you can get a whole meal for about 4 bucks. Or you can go into the mall and get a bratwurst for 2. Dinner is the more expensive thing. There are a few options with dinner. There is an American restaurant called The Fan. It is fun and has pretty good food, but it's not as American as they think it is. It is definitely Germanized. Even McDonalds is Germanized.
(I’m lovin’ it)
They area all really nice restaurants, oh and guess what guys... No Free Refills!!! Anyway, back to dinner. The other main option is Italian food. There are 4 Italian restaurants within walking distance. One, which is right next to the Hostel is called La Pizza. It is owned by the Italian/German Mafia. The main waiter there i dubbed "Tony" He has a huge gold ring on every finger, huge gold watch and bracelet, massive gold necklaces, and is built like an Oak tree. they also have strange looking Italian guys in suits walking in and out of there everyday. Oh and they take forever to both wait on you and bring you your check. Jay had to walk out on them one day. The other Italian restaurant has this skinny little Italian guy that works there. he is a trip. we pass the restaurant everyday from school and he yells, "Hey America!" then tells us who we are playing in soccer next. he's a really funny guy. The other Italian restaurant is Leo's Its my favorite. It is really good and really cheap, and the waitress there doesn't look that bad either. the weird thing about Leo's though, is that they have pictures of Paris all over the walls, and no one there is Italian. The fourth and Final Italian restaurant is Palazzo's.

It is also really good and also pretty cheap. They also have a weird theme for an Italian restaurant... Egyptian. But they have some of the best ice cream in the whole city. The waiters in German restaurants don't rush you, in fact you have to rush them. they wont come back with your tip until you go get them. and since you don't get refills, they don't ever come back to your table. Eating over here is quite interesting and enjoyable. But the fact that we have to eat out every day kind of sucks. You spend about 10-20 bucks on food if you buy lunch and dinner. Overall though the experience is good. The Gertalian food is very tasty. I have only found 2 places in this town that sell bratwurst and of course our 4 competing Italian restaurants
