Title: Hello from North Germany
Post by: magsi on August 13, 2010, 11:30 AM

We are British and live in North Germany where there are 2  Indian restuarants that I know of which are located quite a way away and not possible to visit on a regular basis.  I have really missed a good curry.  After 4 years of not eating one I am now determined to start cooking my own.  It is not easy to find all the ingredients where we live, fresh or otherwise,  so I need to start looking at online shops etc.  This website looks fantastic and I wish I had found it earlier!  Magsi

Hi Magsi und willkommen to cr0 ;D

I worked in Germany back in the early 90's and couldn't find an Indian restaurant for the life of me. Lot's of turkish places about and a few chinese.

Hope you have fun exploring the forum.

Gerne Kochen

How nice to get a response so quickly from other members!  Razor, there are also plenty of Greek and Jugoslavian restaurants here too.  Thing is you can't beat a good curry can you?  Vindaloo-crazy, sauerkraut vindaloo - never thought of that!  Could be the next recipe to win German's Best Dish!   ;)  Magsi

Hi Magsi,

Yes, I remember plenty of Greek places too, I think they called them 'imbasses' or something like that.

So, how long has it been since you were last in Blighty then? and where are you from  originally?

I was back in Blighty in January this year to visit my friend near Leamington Spa.  Try to get back to the UK at least once a year.  Originally from Nottingham and spent some time in Germany as a teenager (Mother Danish), lived in Manchester and then the Isle of Man.  Now back in Germany and have been her for nearly 4 years.  Live very close to the Danish border.  Love it and the lifestyle although I miss UK and the Brits - you just can't beat the Brits and their humour!  Magsi
