Well, I did take German as secondary language when I was in high school (long time ago) and one of the most fun experience was Octoberfest, where we got to eat a lot of great German sausages and bread. Here’s some information on how to enjoy Octoberfest, even if you are not in Germany.
| I grew up in a German neighborhood in Chicago. When I say German neighborhood, the majority of the shops within a couple blocks of home required all of their employees to speak at least some German. |
| But my favorite place in the old neighborhood was Meyer Delicatessen. It was an old world German deli filled with countless types of German sausages, cold cuts and food products. After I moved from Chicago, every trip back would require a stop at Meyer’s to fill a cooler to bring home. Just walking in the door and smelling the rich flavors that permeated the walls over the years, reminded me of my regular visits as a young child and walking in while holding my grandfather’s hand. Sadly, it closed a couple years a go. |
