That's what I always have my mom make me for my birthday and *shhhhhh* don't tell her that this is better??? We were surprised to find out that there was a German place so close to us. I was super excited and I guess it's been here for a while, so I guess it's not going anywhere. This place is amazing and it's so good! Everybody ordered something different and we all got to sample back-and-forth and we ordered enough so we would have stuff to take home and that was a pretty easy thing to do because the sizes of the plates are so big! And the value is really good too!! if you look at our pictures, the cod that we ordered is the small plate in the Wienerschnitzel is also a small plate! I had half a plate left on my beef stroganoff and we had half a plate left of the chicken Cordon Bleu because it was just so !! I almost felt like I was at the Matterhorn at Disneyland because this place is cute and classic at the same time and I feel like I'm taking a little bit of Germany home with me so excited to find this place We will be coming back for more because it's finding a little place in my heart that needed filling!!! PS Dessert is a MAJOR bonus so good!! Cheesecake tastes fresh and the cake is so yummy....!!! If you're close by and you're looking for something different and something yummy and amazing come by!!!

Valerie's service was warm and personalized, we were clearly from out of town and she was very welcoming. She had many stellar recommendations of her personal favorites. The clam chowder was outstanding / phenomenal (and we came from San Francisco so you know that endorsement doesn't come lightly)! I also enjoyed my Goulash with spatzle and kraut, creamy and it really hit the spot. My wife enjoyed her Jaegerschnitzle with potato pancake and kraut. Both delicious options! When I come back in the future, I want to try to Stroganoff and the Baby Back Ribs! And I'll ask for a table in Valerie's section, bc her kindness took our experience over the top. Thank you Forester!!

We came here on a impromptu wine tasting trip on the way back from Tahoe…read more They have an amazing peanut butter burger on Texas toast. The chef is a pretty nice guy. The place is tucked in a shopping center with four wineries. Come here after a few free tastings. You have to pay for the food upfront, which I thought weird of a sit-down bar/restaurant, but I guess when you get busy and you are the only employee, it simplifies things. Def come here if you are on your way back from Tahoe.

We were so pleased that we stopped in again otw back from Tahoe and tried more plates as pictured. They were all soooo delish!

PLEASE COME HERE!! They make their apple cider donuts TO ORDER so they come out piping hot…read more Everything on their menu is homemade! We also got their corn dog and hot link corn dog to try, as well as their hot apple cider. I don't even like cake donuts, but something about a freshly made HOT donut will do something to you!! It was SO soft, hot, and had a good amount of cinnamon to it which I really appreciated. Get your own and don't share, you've been warned! The corn dog batter is delicious! Crispy on the outside and ever so slightly doughy on the inside while still being chewy and soft--it was so good! Not to mention the actual hot dog tasted like it was all beef, not sure if it was, but it definitely wasn't a Bar-S hot dog if you know what I mean! The hot link corn dog was my FAVORITE. Had a GREAT snap when bitten into and had a very small kick to it. I wish it was spicier but that's okay! I love a good corn dog. The hot apple cider was on the sweeter side, it was good on that chilly day but I most likely wouldn't get it again next time because it was a bit too sweet. You have to stop by Rainbow Orchards. Line moves fast and service is great. Also the trees everywhere make a great photo opportunity!

My 11 year old daughter and I came to the Ferry Building for a fun Mom and daughter morning. We hit the Rainbow Orchards stand first, for what was my first and sure to be last visit. We waited to the side while a customer who was there before us was helped, chatting about how much to get. That customer left, and he took the elderly guy who came after us first - no big deal. Then it was our turn and I asked him for 5 dollars worth and handed him a 20. I had 4 singles and a 20, and the choices were either 5 dollars worth, 8 dollars worth, or another amount I can't recall. He told my shy daughter snakily "Don't grow up to be a person who comes to the Farmer's Market and doesn't have exact change." It felt out of line for him to address her in that way. And, he's already complained about me not having exact change. Hey, either sell us the blueberries or don't, but were not here to be a sponge for your anger. So, I observed flatly, well, we don't have to buy anything. And he said, "yes, you do, because I already have your money." Okay, so another aggressive and weird response. I reached out to get the bag of blueberries, since evidently he was giving me no choice other than to buy them, and he backed up so they would be out of my reach. It was like the 4th rude thing he did that was unprovoked. I managed to get the bag and walk away, but he did ruin a chunk of our sweet trip to the Farmer's Market. I wonder how many shoppers had to deal with absorbing his hostility that day.

Delicious, laid-back, and unpretentious. That's what encapsulates a visit to North Canyon Cider Co…read more There were 2 ordering windows when we got there with a blackboard about their offerings (pint, flight, growler, crowler, can, and 4 pack to go). Their flavors arent written on the blackboard, but on the cans next to the ordering windows. My friends and I each got a pint for $7 and we chose the tangerine, pomegranate, semi-sweet, and Heirloom Estate Dry ciders. Personally, I enjoyed the tangerine cider, but my friends liked the pomegranate flavor! Service was quick and easy since we just ordered 4 pints and grabbed a seat to enjoy the fall foliage. They have some outdoor port-a-potties as well as a clean indoor bathroom behind the ordering area. Parking was easy from the main road. Overall, a really fun time and one of my fave Apple Hill stops!

My teenage son especially loved The Pink Panther--it felt like it was perfectly crafted for his generation. What truly made our visit unforgettable, though, was meeting Mr. Yoland. His kindness and words of wisdom meant more than I can express. My son has been going through a very stressful time these past few months, and your conversation with him truly touched his heart. It brought him healing,clarity, comfort, and a renewed sense of direction. To us, meeting you felt like a blessing at just the right moment. Thank you for being such a positive light in his healing journey.

So, we rented the fishing rod for $12 but we didn't catch anything (not sure if there're any fish in the pond) - it was fun though. - Apple fritter walnut ($7): the fritter was good & cinnamony. It has lots of apple pieces and was covered with walnuts. It wasn't too sweet which was my liking. - Donut crumb ($2): the donut was good and soft. The crumb gave crunchy texture on the surface of the donut. - Dutch apple pie slice ($6): was ok. There were packed with apple pieces, very cinnamony and not too sweet. However, the crumb on top of the pie (that makes it 'Dutch') was disappointing - it was soggy and clumpy. - Sour cream berry pie ($6): delicious! The sour cream intensified the berry flavor and it was super good!

I've had too many good memories here at this point to give it less than a five star. High Hill is…read morebig, has a lot to offer, and can be very busy on weekends and holidays. But! If you go on a random Wednesday you took off specifically for your chef friend on her day off so you could come get her necklace fixed by Wave Gods? We nearly had the place to ourselves compared to usual! Neither of us actually remembered which orchard Wave Gods posts up shop at, but we weren't worried. We knew we would know it by sight, and we did! Wave Gods is a beautifully handcrafted jeweler. They're local, fair trade, high quality, fairly priced, and super friendly people. I found a lovely amethyst ring for just $30. And I can trust that it's going to last a very long time if I don't lose it. Wave Gods fixed Jenna's necklace in no time at all, did a cleanse on it to expel all the nasty aura ex bf essences, and she traded one of the beads he made her pick for one of her own choosing. You can have custom pieces done, be they rings, engagement rings, bracelets, earrings or necklaces. Super amazing shop. Check them out! Another excellent reason to stop by here is to munch on a fresh, hot, crunchy, sticky apple fritter. Good lord almighty I hadn't had one in several years but had been having a hankering. The fritter I ordered was everything. I would have wolfed the whole thing down right there but my tummy is what it is so I saved half for later. Delicious heavenly goodness. The duck pond is another fun feature where you can often watch dogs and their humans as well as ducks and geese of all kinds. I remember coming here with my grandparents when I was really little, and appreciate that it still looks the same as it ever did. Maybe not as immense as it seemed to kid me though. Cozy good times and food times at High Hill ranch. Most of what you come up to apple hill for you can find here, plus more craft tents than other orchards have. You may have to use a port o pot. It'll be fine. Vegan Corner: the Fudge Factory has vegan pies ! And gluten free for anyone looking.
