Foods to Try:
For a taste of traditional German food in Cologne, you’ll want to try some Rheinland specialties, which really showcase the region’s hearty cuisine. Here are a few of the must-try tasty foods:
Himmel und Ääd- A combination of black pudding, fried onions, mashed potatoes, and applesauce, this dish represents “heaven and earth” with its sweet and savory flavors.
Rheinischer Sauerbraten- A marinated beef dish that’s slow-cooked until tender, often served with potato dumplings and red cabbage.
Halver Hahn- Not actually a chicken dish as the name suggests, but a delicious open-faced sandwich with a thick slice of Dutch cheese, rye bread, and pickles. Halve Hahn is perfect for a quick bite while exploring the city.
