Speisekammer

I've been meaning to get out to Alameda to give this place a shot for a while. But Alameda is not particularly accessible and it took me until now to make it. Speisekammer is Alameda's bastion of German food and drink- like Suppenkuche East. I went for lunch with my coworkers as a celebration after a successful screening. And let me tell you, there may not be a better way to celebrate than a breaded, fried, meat cutlet.

To be fair, we started with potato pancackes (latkes to those of you from the tribe). They were beautiful and delicious:

For a main, all of us but one went with the Weinerschnitzel. And a good decision it was. On top of the two slices of breaded pork cutlet, we got roasted potatoes. They were delicious, and I quickly realized that was mostly because they had a whole lot of bacon mixed in. Bacon makes things good. Make a note.

My meal paired very nicely with my Weltenburger Kloster Dunkel (a dark wheat beer). Now my body wants a nap time, fortunately, things are slow at work so I might just take my body up on that offer. [NOTE: I don't sleep at work. At least, not on purpose.]
