It's hard to beat weiner schnitzel, German potato salad, and a cold Fransiskaner (sp?).

However, the Gerst House in Nashville used to serve oyster rolls and ham rolls which were absolutely scrumptious. Don't know if they're still on the menu after the original place was bulldozed to make a parking lot for the Titans' stadium. Only restaurant I've ever been to where they had a huge (2 qt?) bottle of Cepacol mouthwash at the cash register and little paper cups so you could pump yourself some on the way out the door [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

German food is more proof that the Germans are generally the best at everything.

I have one word for you; Maultaschen

I was in Germany a few weeks ago and my girlfriend and I were staying with her host family in the Swabisch Alps. Apparantly maultaschen is a regional specialty and we had a sh*t ton for dinner. They served them pan-fried and in soup.

I'm addicted to that stuff. I guess the blame goes to the fact that I've spent 16 years living in and around Stuttgart (swabian capital).

Also, Schweinshaxn, Rindsroulade, and Spätzle are all-time classics that simply go down well.
Schnitzel? Meh. Too dry for me gusto, but together with a good mushroom sauce it's definitely edible.

I guess there's no need to mention that there are many great German beers - but don't be fooled, there's a ton of crappy beer, too.

Franziskaner, close enough. You sir, have tasted a delicious beer.
