I am Ken Abroad, a full-time traveler traveling southeast Asia, currently in Sri Lanka, making Sri Lanka travel vlogs. It is my goal here on this channel to visit every country in southeast Asia and bring you along the journey.
You won’t see much tourist places in my videos, I rather like to show the “real” sides of each country in my videos. Where do the local people go to eat? Where do they hang out? How do the locals travel through the country? Stuff like that.
There will be almost daily uploads on this channel, during the next months from Sri Lanka. I will be traveling Sri Lanka, showing you around local places and try lots of different Sri Lankan food. Join the journey if you are interested in experiencing Sri Lanka now from a more authentic local point of view.

In Manila there is a German Restaurant as well. It's called München Grill Pub and it's located at Zone 72, A. Mabini St, Ermita, Manila, 1000 Metro Manila. But it seems, that they have closed it.
I'm so happy that you enjoyed your German food. Been to this restaurant couple of times. Me too had schnitzel, which was amazing.
28 Years ago I was also in this Restaurant. Im from West Germany.
How was it then?
Not so nice. Now everything looks cozy.
@@berndmuller7726 ya good old time when can visit Eastern countries but not east of Germany
I have been to that German restaurant many years ago and they have a lovely dishes. I am a Chef and I have learnt how to cook all the international dishes at College in the UK. I used to cooked Currywurst with sauce, Schnitzel with Veal, Maultaschen - we make pasta filled with different stuffing. Now I used to cook British and French dishes almost everyday. Great video. 👍
German restaurant as we call it (Not the Bavarian) since it was the only German Restaurant in Sri Lanka for the longest time. Serves excellent food. Originally they did not give any bread etc but the current owners do so. Most of their dishes have been on their menu for a long time. I have been patronizing this restaurant for 25 years and the food quality has been excellent and generous. I must say their pork knuckle is one of the best I have eaten. Even better than the knuckle I had in Frankfurt.
It's normal to crave for home country's food especially when you are away for almost 3 years.Your face expression tells how excited and happy you are when you found a German restaurant in Sri Lanka. So happy to see you enjoy that schnitzel ( though not that 100% authentic ) and german beer in that restaurant with German setting/atmosphere and music. What an amazing day to fulfill that craving !!! Cool to see the correct way of pouring beer into a glass. Thanks for showing, Ken 👍👍👏
Well, l haven't try German food...am not a foodie 😀 🤓 Wonderful to know that you are going home soon for a vacation. Yeah, your loved ones are waiting for your return.Thanks for sharing and have a happy blessed weekend.
I love the Bavarian. It is one of my favourite restaurants in Colombo. Schweinshaxe is my go to dish. :-D
Glad you liked the food Ken.
Wow awesome Ken I’m so glad you got German food in Colombo Sri Lanka. Cheers
You did a great job pouring the beer. I'm Australian we don't like too much foam it's losing all your bubbles 👍
That schnitzel looked awesome.
My first thought of German food is a hot dog with mustard and sauerkraut very delicious.
This baverian restaurant been in Srilanka for a long long time. My favourite in my younger days.😅 the way you pourd the beer, exactly the way locals do. But Germans like more froth I suppose. Out of German food my favourite is the way how they prepare Pork nuckles.
Much Love from Srilanka
Glad you got little taste of home or as close to it as possible 😊
THANK YOU FOR COMING TO SRI LANKA AND MAKING VIDEOS.
Great that you really enjoy the meal of German food after 3 months, can understand your craving. I have never try German food, would like to try one day. Good to hear that you planning a trip back to Germany for vacation later this year, would be great if you can include one or 2 videos to provide us a glimpse of your hometown.
Hi Ken, Sinhala & Tamil New Year falls in 13th & 14th April. Believe u can make good videos on Sri Lankans' traditional festival; how we make authentic traditional Avrudu sweets and preparation, festival celebration during the auspicious time, we have traditonal game events called "Bak-maha Ulela". Though Sri Lankans have tuff time at present , hope people celebrates the festival in a big way, as we got stuck last two years with the Covid pandemic. Most of people in Colombo visits their patents/ villages to celebrate the festival. Some villages still celebrate the festival in the same old style/traditions. Thank u for bringing Sri Lanka to the Globe. Wish u all the best for ur journey. Stay Safe!
You should try and eat German food in every country you visit!
Enjoyed this video. I can understand how you feel when you miss food from your home. I used to look for Indian cusine and Indian Beer. Finally I enjoyed having the local lion beer the mild one which was really good
Some tuk tuk are private vehicle in sri lanka.. not for hire...
I really enjoyed the clip and learned a lot about German food and beer. Thanks.
It's so cute how excited you are, having a chance to eat your home cuisine.👍🙂❤
I have lived in Singapore for almost 20 years, I can totally understand when you have a craving for home cooked food. Glad that you enjoyed it.
I have dined at this restaurant maybe about 20 years ago. The signature dish was pork knuckle.
Everything looks delish!🤩
I've passed by that restaurant many times over the years. I enjoy German food, so of course I've been curious. I'm glad it passes the test. Maybe next time I'm in Colombo I'll give it a try.
Yeah i’ve been to that restaurant, excellent food, good variety of beer too!
12:41 in English it's probably called Coat of Arms
Always good to see the yummy & delicious foods that's available in Sri Lanka.
Looks very nice, I love sauerbraten and I make it once a month . Good to see you happy. Alles gute .
You're from Bremen...wow...the food looked yummy...
Hi Ken I have tried the same in Vienna.. Great you found good German food here in our country 👍
Nice Ken! It’s interesting to try familiar foods while traveling to see how they fair to what we’re used to.
Glad you were able to have some German food in Sri Lanka and enjoyed it. I've had sauerbraten, pork knuckle, German sausages, sauerkraut, spaetzle and pork schnitzel, and of course, I love German beer.
Its such a great feeling to have home food in a foreign country. You should have enlightened them on the mismatching music.
Wow so delicious good evening everyone watching ❤❤❤🇵🇭
I was lucky enough tasted many German dishes during my student days when I was traveling from USSR to England.
I pass this restaurant quite often, but never thought of trying. After watching this video I really want to try it soon.
Always loved watching your videos. This video is interesting. All the best to you, Ken. Hope you continue with this work for more years. Cheers from Australia
.
hey i have never ever had German food, and i really crave for one, the one you had was delicious looking and would love to have one as well 🔥🔥🔥
Good content. My favorite German food : Pork knuckle + sauerkraut + Bitburger :)
Hi ken. you ask why some of the tuk tuk guy doesn't stop to take passengers..The reason when they get a call from clients, they go to pick them up. or going to pick up some children from private class. most of the tuk tuk guys have their own clientele...Have a good day and enjoy your holiday in Sri Lanka extremely sorry for the power cut. The reason this country run by corrupt politicians...
Happy Weekend from 🏴 It's really sunny and warm here now. You looked so happy trying your German meal. It really did look very tasty. When Julia J and I were in Ao Nang we google searched a restaurant that would serve a good English breakfast. We loved it so I can understand your excitement in finding this restaurant.
Interesting news that you will be travelling home soon to see your parents. I hope we get to meet them here?
Have a great weekend my friend Mein Freund
Stay safe and well 🙏 🇱🇰 🏴🏴
It looks like a German restaurant we like in NYC called Zum Stammtisch. Nice vibe at this place!
Bavarian restaurant is few metres away from where I work (Seylan Bank) I should defenetely go there.. ❤️
Your face telling the story for getting home country food .
You look cute while explaining about food .
It's 100% heart touch feeling after get home country food .
It's look delicious but your expression was outstanding 💘☺️☺️☺️☺️.
Great 👌
Love your videos 🔥❤️
In late October and early November we celebrate OKTOBERFEST at a couple of 5star hotels but after COVID, it has not taken place. Hilton flies down GERMAN BANDS and Performers of Traditional dances and SCHNAPPS is also served. Great atmosphere. The best German food that comes to my mind is the ROASTED PORK KNUCKLE. Its a great dish.
Hai ben I have never tried German foods. After seeing this vedio, I want to try german foods.
Me too
Looking delicious food 😋
I mean.... what could be better than a German himself showing us around Germany, you know? 😉😉
I'm pretty sure your viewer would love to see the "real" Germany the way you explore other countries here in Asia.
Wow Ken,beautiful video
I also wanted to go to The Bavarian when I was working in Colombo. But I never did. Now I am working from home and I can't. haha
There is a another german restaurant in nawala nugegoda owned to a german couple ..nice vlog .enjoy
Ahh... A visit to a German Restaurant... .... Darn , I miss Octoberfest.... The pub and bar aren't allowed to operate due to the pandemic ..... I agree on the part of pouring out the beer in a mug....especially the foam part on the top ...Yummy Food!!! Hey... I'm a foodie... Love German Pork Knuckle & Bratwurst...Glad you found a bit of comfort from home....As always ,stay safe, be vigilant , take care...
Welcome Mr.Ken 👍👍
Thanks for this wonderful video. Looked like u found d german food everywhere u go. U found halal german food in Malaysia, german food in Thailand, now in Sri Lanka.

@@muhammad11ali11 🙂
we need your home town vlog 😍
Vlogs are amazing ❤️please don't leave
Wow, I have passed that place multiple times and never noticed there was a German Restaurant there
Yes... from The same place...! It’s the best...! There is another place which u should try Called the Sovereign German Restaurant... really good food
This was super when the German chef was around , anyway its good quality
I’m v happy for you Ken to get your home food..
thanks for visiting Sri Lanka
The first thing which comes to my mind about German food is bratwurst MIT sauerkraut.
Gutentag!❤️🧡♥️💜💙
Hello Ken, I used to live in Bangkok.There are a coiuple of German/Swiss restaurants in Sukhumvit soi 20. Really nice. Although that was some years ago, I hope they are still there! things chage a lot.
I know of at least 2 German restaurants that are still there in Bangkok 😊
Am so happy you finnd g m food. God bless
Love the video
Wow! Enjoy! Never been to Germany. I have five first cousins, hope to visit them oneday. Havent tried German food. Now I see this, I want to open a Canadian restaurant in Colombo-with Poutine and some unique food from here.
I grew up eating here with my parents in the 80s! And I ate there again when I went back in 08. Loads of fond memories there. We always loved the food ... sauerbraten, spaetzel, potato salad, schnitzel... Super yum!
enjoyed the beer pouring. You need to perfect the Nickle Head pour. The size of a US Nickle and this amount excites the beer properly to get full taste :-). I love German food. Spent a lot of time in Berlin and fell in love with schnitzel there. usually without the gravy. Love it bigtime - Enjoy
Awesome video 🔥🔥👍
Look delicious! Definitely will find out German schnitzel 👍
Should have had a Jagermeister with your Jager schnitzel. :)
Möchten Sie unser neu aufgerüstetes, einzigartiges Stativ ausprobieren? Wir möchten wirklich mit Ihnen an unseren Produkten zusammenarbeiten.
It's really different when we eat our food in another country 😉
Woow one of favourite restaurants ever
Schweinshaxe! Always the best.
I remember you found your German food here in Kota Bahru and Johor Bahru
Nice presentation.
I like that you have a strong German accent 😍
Hope you do a video on returning to Germany.
Response to question at 11min 52 sec: Bratwurst, Sauerkraut, Rotkohl, Riesling, Eiswein, Kartoffelsalat, (Schnitzel, Bier - already mentioned) are some of the food/drink items that come to mind when talking about German food (apologies for any spelling mistakes).
This is the 4th video of you craving some German food. Guten Appetit.
About the first thing that pop in my mind when heard German food is Sauerkraut.
Didn't know about this restaurant.. should pay a visit for sure. 😍
Cheers 🍻, from nj
I think the lack of foam on your beer glass was due to the glass being washed in detergent. Not your fault.
Wow....when you come to Kandy....Let me know....ha ha....
Been there a few weeks ago✌ also made a few videos there 🤙
I love having "Grill Saxe" when visiting BRAUHAUS GEORGBRAEU in Berlin, It's a great German restaurants of course with its own brewery
Hi Ken , I'm English I tried schnitzel in a little German town called Rohhdorf in Bavaria close to the Alps , was very nice with German wheat beer
Yes i understand you like to eat 1 time German Food after a long time. I also like German Food, because i am from Holland and we have almost the same Food. Nice to see Ken und lekker. 🙏
It's good to have food from back home! Pouring a very cold beer is different than a cool [typical] beer.
As an educator, I attended an exhibition called Didacta in Germany in the 90s. Every stall was selling bread, meat, sausages.... But we could find no water to drink! ☺
germany has some of the cleanest tap water in the world. Everyone drinks tap water here
@@MED16 Awesome! In 1991, our guest house owner told us not to!
Wanderbau wonderful sorry for the spelling. Spent 4 years in Germany
Ich libe dish....enjoy mate...greetings from Srilanka
Hi Ken. Bon appétit.❤🇱🇰
Thanks 😊🤙
Cute. Missing food of home.
Schnitzel is popular in Australia, nearly all pubs and hotels offer it.
Megaa du bist immer noch in Sri Lanka enjoy & passt dich auf bye Colombo is meine geburtsort
Ja! Schnitzel und Bockwurst. I live in The Netherlands haha
I've met a few Germans and made friends through work and the german dish that I was surprised by and now comes first to my head each time I think of German food is Mett cause they told me it's a very good dish. I've yet to try though, maybe one fine day! Mettbrötchen for those that want to google it.
Yh Ken all the tuk tuks are not taxies🙂
Hi..
Guten Tag 😃
Ich wohne in München..Ich möchte Semmelknödel mit Braunpilze Sauce essen..
Aber dein Essen sieht gut aus..
Guten Appetit 😋
Freundliche Grüße 🖖
Don´t worry about the beer and the "Schaum". I bet not all beers in Sri Lanka are as fresh and have the correct temperature as in Germany. Would be cool to see your hometown when you go back some day.
