Tasting Kangaroo Meat on the German Highway

August 9, 2012 By sujatha 2 Comments

Although we’re in the Caribbean at the moment, enjoying the sea and scrumptious food, I feel I have to write about our experience at a B&B we found randomly on the German autobahn a little while ago during our road trip through Europe.

Aichelberg definitely did not strike us as a place where we would find great food not to mention gourmet style cooking. However, on our way back to France from Vienna, we had to make a stop for the evening and decided to check out a place called Lausers Adler in the little town of Aichelberg.

However, we were in for a pleasant surprise when we sat down for dinner soon after checking in.

Eating Our Way Through the Camino

Myself and Peter recently completed the Camino de Santiago or the Way of St.James as it’s known in English. It was an exhilarating experience and the highlights included among others, meeting some really interesting people, beautiful landscapes and of course, trying out local cuisine and specialties.

Never having visited Spain before and not knowing much about Spanish food except for tapas, Rioja wine and paella, our journey through various provinces provided us with a good insight into local eating traditions and we sampled as many of them as we could.

And of course, I had to try out the famed paella on our very first day.
