"The Scene if you like huge, steamy bratwurst, German potato salad, cooked cabbage, and schnitzel, this Bavarian deli with a small dining room is the place for you. It's one of the few places in the area that specializes in German food, and you'll see many native Germans come in for takeout or to buy the ingredients to make dinner at home.The FoodSandwiches are sold, along with bread, meat, and cheese, all freshly sliced. Black Forest Cake is a Siegried's specialty, and many people order their layered cakes for special occasions. You'll also find a variety of chocolates and European cookies." Four 1/2 Stars
(Feb 09) Last year Dana and I found this cute little deli. We were a little early for our show at the Capitol Theater, and it was right next store. We tried some chocolate and Dana got some mints, that we later found out were cough drops, yuk. Everything was written in German. Guess we could have asked.
Later I was talking to Lyn (friend and neighbor), who is German and has spent a lot of time in Germany. She told us that she had been to the deli many times. She told us about the food and desserts and that we all had to go back. So the night the boys were on the Klondike, we took all our girls and went (Christina too, Dana's friend).
Lyn was our food guide and helped us make our choices. I had Wiener Schnitzel. I know you are thinking it is a hot dog of some sort. Wrong! It is a thin slice of veal coated in breadcrumbs and fried. It also came with a lemon wedge and I had them put gravy on it. I also had hot potato salad. Dana and Christina had spatzle, a type of egg noodles and small dumplings with gravy.
On to dessert. A big decision, as it was all beautifully dislayed in a huge case. Dana had an eclair, that promptly went in her mouth and I had the marzapan cake.
Do I look happy, becasue I am, VERY!
Oh, did I mention Dana brought a date. He was very quiet. Not really her type.
I should mention that I am German too (actually still in the air as to whether it is German, Polish or Luxembourg). My maiden name is Rossin. I was told it used to be spelled Rozzine, which in German means raisin. Figures.
(Mar 09) Buy a snowblower and it won't snow. Poor Jerry. He so wanted this snow blower. For the past few years, he's come in with his black beanie and gloves on and said, "I swear, this is the last year I am going to shovel." The tax return came, there was a sale, he called fom Home Depot, I agreed, it was bought, and then..... no snow. 
I think he had it for weeks. Then finally...it came. Ever so little, but it came. I think, and I think he knew too, if he waited an hour it would have just melted off by its self, but he plowed and he was happy.
Maybe this winter will be the worst snow fall of the century. If so, wave to him as you as you drive by.
