Vivo negli Stati Uniti e sono già stato in alcuni ristoranti tedeschi e tedeschi (ish). Ho sempre amato il rotkohl e gli spätzle come accompagnamento ad una buona carne. Stasera sono andato in un posto locale che è molto recensito e pretende di servire autentico cibo tedesco. Ho visto il loro antipasto di spaetzle con cavolo rosso e grigliata londinese ed ero entusiasta di provarlo. Probabilmente ho mangiato 3 bocconi e l’ho rispedito indietro. Quando il cameriere mi ha chiesto se andava tutto bene, ho detto che non era quello che mi aspettavo; la carne era incredibilmente secca e gli spätzle erano più simili a spaghetti leggermente aromatizzati. Ha affermato che l’intero piatto era come lo preferisce la maggior parte dei tedeschi e che questo è l’aspetto normale degli spätzle. Qual è il verdetto?

I don’t know what that is but it’s definetly NOT Spätzle…
Meat looks dry AF. And whatever these “noodles” are, they are not Spätzle.
The spätzle kinda look convenience instead of hand made.
The meat does indeed look incredibly dry (and this is coming from someone who likes his meat done medium-well). Also, I had to google “london broil”, which appears to be a cut usually used for steak… not exactly the most German of meat dishes. The Spätzle are store-bought dried Spätzle. They’ll do in a pinch, but definitely not what I’d expect to be served in an “authentic” restaurant. The cabbage looks very unappealing, too. Also, this dish is definitely lacking a nice, thick gravy of some sorts.
Edit to add: And don’t get me started on those “pretzels”!
This meat looks like a 5 Minuten steak from Aldi, we call it Lederlappen. They even forget the sauce.
That is definitely not authentic
Where’s the sauce? That kind of roast meat has to go with lots of sauce. Either with gravy or sometimes you serve cooked beef with a white horsereddish sauce. If you serve it with white sauce then it has to be with potatos.
And in a restaurant I would expect homemade Spätzle and not this kind of dried pasta from the supermarket. The cabbage could be kind of to sour for an average american taste.
That meat looks so dry,you could use it as kindling
You got served Spagetti with a side of shoe leather.
No, that’s not how we prefer it.
I think these are dry Spätzle for boiling in hot water like this one https://www.edeka24.de/index.php?cl=details&anid=c284d997dc474dcc8.36988443&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIkcWU1YeFhgMV5nJBAh3L5QjsEAQYASABEgIE8fD_BwE
But these are in no way comparable with fresh spätzle.
The meat looks terrible and the Germans are know for their love of much sauce. I don’t see any sauce and this makes me sad
I wouldn’t even serve this to my dog
Is London broil something like Tafelspitz or Kochfleisch? If so, this looks just dry and unpleasant. When my mom cooks Kochfleisch, it’s tender, and you almost don’t need a knife to cut it. AND it’s served with Remoulade, which is a German tartar sauce.
