Wiener Schnitzel with German potato salad.
Amazing beyond belief.And the coffee service was even pretty.
They must have forgotten to cut the potatoes 
Glad I wasn’t the only one thinking that! Now I want to make some, mmmm 
That dessert looks heavenly. I’ve had serious sugar cravings lately after not having any for a long time…this made my mouth water!
I was thinking about the meaning of salad… What does salad even mean.
This is also what people in Germany (south) and Switzerland and Austria? and… ? understand as a salad
I was thinking about this recently, too. Funny! So many types of salad. How about egg, ham, tuna or chicken salads?
Check this out: salad | Etymology, origin and meaning of salad by etymonline
(I love etymology!)
So anything we prepare with salt is a salad. 
Check out the link…Americans changed the game by focusing on lettuce I guess.
Ah, sorry. Interesting. It’s always so interesting what is meant by the same word in a different country or even region in one country. Always be careful what you order. 
In my mind whether or not it’s hot or cold can’t be the criteria for salad, for instance, people I know who make German potato salad, serve it hot. Potatoes, chopped and cooked, Bacon, used to be lard, onions and maybe vinegar.
Wonderful.
In @Dazercat way it looks like they did it “ their” way, which is fine.
To me it looks more French than anything and something that I would do, have done, and do do, with olive oil and herbs.
Although we might think of salads as something that always would be served cold that’s not necessarily the case.
A warm autumn salad for instance could have warm cooked vegetables in with the beautiful lettuces etc.
PS I wrote this before I saw that Rosa posted a link and I haven’t looked at it yet. I started writing before some of the other conversation happened
In the French households that I have dined in, including my father’s, it was and has always been the way to serve the salade as the last course before the cheese course and then the fruit course. A way to cleanse the palate before the cheese course and then the fruit course and a token sweet afterwards every now and then.
This is the way for ordinary everyday meals.
@Dazercat yum on the gateaux Black Forest. I Want!!!
Edit to add. Interesting link @RosaCanDo
I did know about the link to the word salt for salad, and I’m fairly sure that is also the route for salsa which in turn becomes sauce.
I thought the same
But the dessert looks so good omg 
I want that now. It’s 6:45am and I’m on my way to work 
It was the best thing I’ve ever had in my mouth.
They were tiny potatoes and perfectly soft. We were both actually surprised how good it was.

We are kind of picky about our tater salad. I reckon people like the kind the family made and grew up with.
We couldn’t figure out what kind of restaurant it was. So I guess it was European type. It had many French and German style dishes. The potato salad in question was basically cool room temperature. Not hot or warm. Room temp around here is probably around 50.
TW liquor.
50!
I read the history of the Black Forest gateau. Has nothing to do w the actual Black Forest other than yes it originated near there, and has explicitly to do with a liquor made nearby to be authentic.
I’ve edited. Read the wiki.
According to that source.
I looked at recipes not using that special ingredient which most people don’t use.
Uses cherry juice! Talk about antioxidants!
I’m glad I didn’t get the carrot cake. I really wanted the carrot cake. The waiter said 90% people order the Black Forest Gateau. 10% carrot cake. Maybe I can get a carrot cake before I go back on my sugar restrictions.
There’s lots of sugar free, everything free but deliciousness, recipes for carrot cake out there. Lots of our cooks on this thread probably can and do make amazing ones even with icing!
Mango.
@Tito23 your food looks so good I can usually smell it!
@Deelzebub love your creativity with the bread! Amazing!
