My "local" contact in Augsburg turned me on to a classic German culinary delight, König von…read moreFlandern Gasthausbrauerei. What's fun is that this restaurant is also a micro-brewery (hence the "brauerei" in the name) and makes a 19% bier called "Alligator". It's a dangerous animal, smooth and creamy and betraying none of the violence that will emerge after a couple of them. Because I was driving, I only got a sip or two and tried the dark ale and the Weiss instead. I prefer stronger tasting Weiss than what was available. The dark ale is nice, but I wouldn't go out of my to seek this bier out, honestly. So, on to what really impressed me! So, because I was in Germany, I wanted true German cuisine and König von Flandern didn't let me down. I ordered the Schwabenteller platter, which was composed of roasted shoulder of pork, livercheese, and crusty roast along with Swabian potato noodles and sauerkraut. My local contact opted for the Wiener schnitzel and my other companion opted for the famous pork knuckle, known as schweinshaxe. I have to say that everything was outstanding. My roasted shoulder of pork was about as good as I've ever had. I'm not a pork guy, but I'm in southern Germany, so I had either learn to like pork or walk away from the cuisine. The shoulder was SO very good that I cannot begin to describe it other than to say it was savory and soul-satisfying in a way that nothing other bacon can bring! The crusty roast was a delight as well, but I could eat the shoulder all day, every day. I'm not a huge fan of liverwurst, but I even enjoyed the livercheese! How can you go wrong with real sauerkraut from a real German restaurant, warm and acidic, but neither overwhelming or sharp like "American" kraut is. Both of my companions enjoyed their meals as well, but they didn't give me much to quote or share, but clearly they were both satisfied. Now, keep in mind that this may be one of the very first English reviews for the Augsburg area, but I have to say, I was VERY satisfied with this visit and I highly recommend König von Flandern!
