Brats for Breakfast


We love bratwurst and pomme frites. A week ago Saturday we got up early and attacked the last of the shipping boxes we had remaining from the move. We were finished by 1030 and since there were a few things we needed, nails and screws for hanging pictures, we drove into Kaiserslautern. Jeff had heard that the best bratwursts in the area are sold at Globus, a big, Walmart kind of store (not as big but a good place). They sell a bratwurst and brotchen (kickass bread roll) for only 1 Euro. 1 Euro!! A really great price. So, before we went over to Praktiker (a sort of Home Depot chain), we stopped at Globus for a brat. Although it was 1100, it turned out that this was Jeff's and my breakfast. Of course, if you have a brat you have to have a beer. So for breakfast we had bratwurst, and a little Bitburger. Oh yeah, and some pomme frites (French fries, but they're crisper and lighter than American fries and somewhat addictive; maybe they sprinkle a little crack cocaine on them.)
