Deutsches Museum For Cooking And Dining Culture

Small but noteworthy

Irene at the Deutsches Museum for cooking and dining culture was a lovely host. She told us as well as her English was able about various culinary trends that have influenced fine (and not so fine) dining in Germany. The collection was significantly damaged (read mostly destroyed) in the war when the allies pretty much blew up the building the museum was housed in. There were a handful of bottles of wine, 4 pressure cookers (one of which was modem beyond 1940s), and some lovely traditional dining vessels. They are rebuilding, of course, but it's been a slow progress.

There was an exhibit on decorative napkin folding, with a hands on component. I made a bishops' miter!

Then, as we were leaving, she told us about the Apfelweinfest...

Super helpful, really interesting, and I'd love to see the new exhibit once it gets categorized!

You must go here. Knut Günther, as is the museum, is amazing.

(Translated by Google) Insider tip for all Frankfurt and non-Frankfurters. Who knows that Frankfurt has a tea tradition and that Bethmännchen is made of marzipan and almonds. Be sure to look best with a guide. Then go to Thurn and eat taxis. This is the only palace in Frankfurt and for a few years again chic.

Geheimtipp für alle Frankfurter und Nicht-Frankfurter. Wer weiss schon, dass Frankfurt eine Teetradition hat und das Bethmännchen aus Marzipan und Mandeln bestehen. Unbedingt anschauen am besten mit einer Führung. Danach noch ins Thurn und Taxis essen gehen. Das ist das einzige Palais in Frankfurt und seit ein paar Jahren wieder schick hergerichtet.

It's just not that easy to find - definitely ring the bell.
