Just a post about the food I have eaten in Germany and Switzerland. Most of the food comes from German Christmas Market. We hunted food in all of the christmas markets in Germany. In Germany, speaking of christmas markets, there were nicely decorated! the atmosphere, lighting, musics, foods, people, performance and a huge christmas tree at the center! What i can found the most were German sausage, beef/pork, with bread or with sauce. sausage everywhere. I have been to christmas markets in Berlin, Rothenburg ob de Tauber, Munich, Frankfurt and Cologne. rated the best food was in Berlin, and the nicest decoration in Cologne! let the photos speak!
