this is a very random travel blog but i thought i would fill you all in on something i just learned about german food.. german nachos are NOT i repeat NOT the same as nachos in America!!!! Let me tell you the story. So a few friends and I stopped by this little restaurant that was Mexican themed but run by Mediterranean people - first hint.. and i missed it completely. anyway, so we went in and wanted a snack. The menu described the nachos as chips with cheese and meat, sour cream, salsa, and avocado. Sounds good right? Thats what I thought. So I order the nachos to split with a friend. A few minutes later the waiter brings by a plate of Doritos Nacho Cheese chips and a cup of avocado. Silly Americans that we are ... we didn't think that this was our meal. But oh yes it was. We waited a while and then when we realized that nothing else was coming and that these chips were cheese flavored. "Are these nachos?" I asked the waiter, "because this is not what we thought nachos were.. We weren't expecting this!" "This is Germany" he said. And that was that. We decided to swap out the avocado for salsa and that was an even worse mistake. He brought us back watery sweet and sour sauce. it was really gross. so then i asked if he would let us switch it out for something else. but no that wasn't going to happen either so we said we're done with the nachos. we'll take a pizza. So now my pizza count is up to like 4 or something. Oh well. I have a picture of the nachos but i haven't uploaded the pictures yet... so once i do take a look. you will probably laugh. Ok enough of this. More adventures to come. I'm going to Italy this weekend!!!!!!!! Til next time....Tschuss!
