Book & Baking Blog Entry 13

Pastries I have known and loved.

My favorite city is Rome. It's beautiful. There is culture. The food is excellent. If you know where to go the wine is good.

But if you want the best pastries on earth go to Germany. Yes, the beer is good. Go for the beer stay for the bread. We arrived last night at 9 pm. It is 24 hours later. So far I have eaten brotchen to die for, a strawberry pastrie with a touch of custard, and a poppyseed swirl that was good as well.

For a snack we had a Warm melt-in your-mouth cinnamon pastry that was so good my 3-year-old cried when she didn't get the last bite.

Did I mention the bread service at meals? They served these excellent rolls-not Some faux sourdough. crusty on the outside-chewy on the inside! And some kind of bizarre yet tasty onion spread.

Yum! Happy eats from Hamburg: pictures later.
