Many of our meals have been pre-selected before we came to Europe. While the food has been excellent at every place, sometimes we are not in the mood for the food we picked out two months ago. However, It was nice that IILE (our host vendor) prepared the menu because it definitely got things moving when we were in a hurry to get to various appointments.
One recent food and drink adventure brought us to a traditional restaurant where one of our members decided to stray a bit from the norm. He ordered Ostrich. Personally I was expecting it to come out cooked and served like a hamburger. This was not the case. It arrived raw, with a raw egg on top. Some other patrons told us we
should mix all of the ingredients together and put it on bread. Apparently it was excellent, because the plate was literally licked clean.
A few nights later, my roommate Kerry and I strayed from the group. We wanted to try out a restaurant that one of our professors had recommended. This was no ordinary restaurant because the wait staff brought our order on a replica train. The entire restaurant has miniature train tracks running through it, bustling with toy trains that bring “pivo” to its patrons. I ordered weiner schnitzel, which, much to my surprise, was similar to chicken fried chicken at home.
Overall, I think that we have adjusted quite well to the food. We just need to know what to order. There is quite a variety. So, if you are ever in this awesome country, branch out and try something new!
