Live to Ride...Ride to Eat

[Nortoon_imp]

That was quite a pleasant ride. Always fun when you out exploring and find something like the wooden twisty road, and that grand hotel.

Here in Ottawa we had a number of good German restaurants. Our favourite was Manfred’s in the west end. Very good veal Wiener Schnitzel, excellent spaetzle, and a properly chilled bottle of Burg Layer Schlosskapelle Riesling. Penny liked his bananas in pyjamas for dessert, but I always chose the apple strudel with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Unfortunately Manfred went back to his home country, and it seems that every other German Restaurant owner followed. No one makes Wiener Schnitzel with veal anymore. Now all there is available are beer and sausage gastropubs. The word gas in the name tells me it is not what I am looking for.
