And more speaking of German Food.... I recently watched an episode of
You Gotta Eat here that featured a German restaurant called the Black
Forest Inn in Hamilton. My wife and I were coming back from Toronto and
stopped there on our way. I was impressed. The special of the day
was soup (meatball), salad, a huge piece of Schnitzel stuffed with
smoked ham pate, a big serving of spaetzle and a hefty serving of
creamed peas. The soup was amazing. The spaetzle was the best I have
had in years. The Schnitzel was great. I was stuffed so I didn't really
get to the creamed peas.I tried some and they were good .... but
something had to be sacrificed and it was the peas.
