- Our US trip comes to an end and after 3 months, it's time to go back to Germany.
We had some BIG CRAVINGS and discussed for days (weeks?) what we are gonna eat first. :)
These are some dishes we really missed and had to eat immediately! What would be your first meal in or back in Germany?

We are back in Germany! What would be your first meal in (or back in) Germany? If you liked this video, you may enjoy: Trying Beer Garden in the USA (czcams.com/video/aDdHaKDbODI/video.html ) or German Vending Machines! (czcams.com/video/5qaiYexPXYw/video.html )
Schäufele mit kartoffelklöße! I miss Germany so much.
Idea for a video: Give Deana a German recipe, has to grocery shop and cook it. She is not allowed to use translators for help and in the store she needs to use German in case she has any questions for the food she needs to buy
That's a good idea!
Ohhhh veryyy gut idea!
Fresh pastry items in the morning, self-made Schnitzel for lunch, Döner Kebab in the evening - Indeed the perfect day being back in Germany! 😋
I am Dutch but live 30 minutes away from the German border. I grew up with semmel knödel and I swear no one here knows what I'm talking about when I mention them. They are soooo good and there is nothing comparable to them here. When we go grocery shopping in Germany (once, twice a year) I always stock up on them. I ate them all the time when I lived in a student dorm too!
Semmel knödel is definitely superior to the potato ones in my opinion
There is so much money to be made if people would just spread out those things like Semmelknödel, Awesome Mexican Burritos, American Barbecue, Döner Kebab and all of those things in the different countries. I never get why people don't do that... it's a fortune you can make with that stuff.
I would love to visit the Dutch-German border region someday.
There is a surprising difference in Semmelknödel flour that you can buy. I have no idea how they can be so different.
After I was 2 month in the Netherlands, the first thing I did after I came back to Germany was to buy the darkest, hardest bread I could find. Finally no white toast bread to put the cheese on!
I lived in Holland for almost 6 years and my favourite was Shwarmas, I've never seen Dutch-style Shwarmas anywhere else. Bitterballen, Croquettes, Loempia, they're all great too.
Are you in Venlo?
Phil, "For dinner we are having something I've been missing for three months!"
Audience, "döner kebab."
Phil, "döner kebab!"
You must see, James Bray, eating the first Döner last week at Cologne in his life. With tears in his eyes
Wow guys, great job cooking and plating your lunch! Made me soo hungry. You guys have gotten so smooth and comfortable in front of the camera, I'm so proud of you, you guys are Pros now! Phil was craving a doner, shocking absolutely no one. 🤣
Have to say it was the first thing that came to mind, Phil and his doner,lol.
@@bkm2797 I know 🤣
Hi guys, lived in Germany for years as UK Soldier, in Bunde, Herford, Osnabruck, Heidelberg (our daughter was actually born there), Sennelager, Paderborn. Love the content, stay safe x
Yay for Osnabrück!
Now everybody's alexa has set a timer for ten minutes Phil
😂
Bloody love you two you sense of humour is on point 😂 love from Liverpool 🇬🇧
Literally just said, Alexa cancel timer! 😂
Every Monday morning my grandfather would come over to my family's flat and tap on the windows with his keys. He and my father worked together but my dad loved to sleep in. Grandpa would bring a box of pastries and coffee, and I remember eating cheese danishes that were so damn good. This video is a strong call back to those memories.
If you visit Heidelberg, definitly also go to Mannheim, in the "Little Istanbul" area you will find the best döner in germany!
These videos keep on getting better!! Definitely going to try to cook this homemade schnitzel
Do it! Let us know how it goes!
Every time I am in Germany, the first thing I do is hit a bakery to get myself a couple laugenkasestange or two (one for later!). For those who don't know, this is basically a pretzel "baguette" cut open and put back in the oven for a moment to melt cheese on top. They rule!!
Loving the personal downtime in this video along with your regular roaming for food.
Another fun and festive video! My sons and I will be in Düsseldorf in about 3-weeks and now we know where to get a döner! We've also been making schnitzel at home, which has been sehr lecker! If you go to München and want to do a video on a great place for schnitzel, go to Drei Mühlen. They have several types of schnitzel that are awesome! I recommend the Schnitzel Trio - 3-types of schnitzel on one plate. Keep up the great work! The bbq you had in South Carolina looked awesome!
The meal you just made looks very delicious I would definitely eat it. We make breaded fried sauted chicken in a pan like that here in the United States, some of us even put gravy on it, I make a delicious Hunter's gravy with mushrooms. I also make dumplings and I also make purple red cabbage from scratch and I put raisins in it and it's delicious.
of course, my Alexa heard you speaking to your Alexa and started a 10 minute timer. Glad you are back! loved the cooking, and in the US try for shawarma instead of Döner. Similar and more common, many places that have felafel, have shawarma.
Good to see you guys. Doner Kebab is defiantly something I crave from Germany and its not here in the US. The Gyro is not quite the same. And no would not pay $17 for one the best thing is they are cheap and good to eat while on the go.
thank you phil, i got a 10 minute alarm in my alexa for free
Hello from Texas! I stumbled through channels and found y'all. I really like the energy. I really really love the diversication that y'all present. AWESOME vids and keep up the great work!
Throw the Knödel in the pan shortly before serving to give 'em a little crust, works best with a little Griebenschmalz.
For weapons-grade Schnitzelpanade grind up some Paprikachips (Potatoes, Phil! Potatoes on your Schnitzel!) and add it to the Panade.
You two are such a fun couple to watch...I love your shared passion for food between the 2 countries 😊❤ As german born girl who has lived in the US and spent most of her life in the UK so much of your content really resonates with me. Keep up the fun stuff Phil and Deanna! 🥨🍔🥐🍕🍟🍺🍹🥙🥯
I love these videos! They bring back so many happy memories when I got to visit Germany with my high school! These videos also make me wish we had restaurants that made all of these amazing foods near where I live.
It's strange, that first pastry is a type that was once extremely common in every American bakery, but they've almost disappeared. I haven't seen one in decades. We called them a danish or a snail. They must still live on in parts of the US, just not my part.
I remember them, too. Loved it.
Me too! Lost art.
14:56 min In Hamburg you mostly get "Uludag Gazoz" (a Turkish lemonade) in the Döner-grills. In my opinion it tastes better than Sprite or Fanta, because it is less sweet and more refreshing.
Great video! Welcome back to your home. Keep these videos coming.
Thanks for your content... Love the cooking at home.. I'm American who's family is from Garmisch/ Munich... Today I still make traditional food that I learned from my Mom, who learned from hers... It's priceless knowledge... Again, thank you both. Take care.
thick pork/chicken schnitzel, red cabbage and simply polatoes is common meal in Poland and my mosdt favourite dish. I cook it since living in Barcelona too. You must visit Poland guys. I am sure you will feel like at home if go to Wroclaw.
I enjoyed the home cooking segment, it was nice to see some homecooked and even the already semi-prepared foods. Nice glimpse of what people eat at home. I can't believe how affordable döner kebab is! At least where I live in the US it's hard to find any food for $5-7 outside of a convenience store. Even fast food has become pretty expensive.
I’m a recent subscriber and I adore your videos, I love you guys humor and occasional naughty puns !!😂 the food looked delicious
I love German food looking forward to watching this video. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Ah, you got a Laugenecke, my favorite! I always force Americans to try them cuz what are they anyway? A pretzel/croissant perfectly done with so much butter. I've never had one as a sandwich so I can only imagine. They also stay good for several days, if they start to go bad you can put them in the microwave for a couple seconds and they're great again. I'm so happy for you!
You can use the bottom of a cast iron pan to flatten your schnitzel.
I love arugula on a sandwich, in a salad, etc; I like it's peppery bite. Cheers Guys.
Thanks so much! I was just in Dusseldorf in May and I miss it already!
That was great. Especially the home cooking! Welcome home! ❤❤❤
I've found that gyros in Greek shops are the closest to a döner. It's not exactly the same, but definitely fills the craving 😊
(Pita)gyros is tradionally made from pig, which is forbidden in Muslim countries and not considered as kosher by Jews...Therefore Döner is with Beef, Chicken or sometimes Lamb or Mutton..
@@martinkasper197 I don’t know what type of gyros you’re getting but here where I live they’re made of a combination of beef and lamb. It’s a solid pressed meat made of ground up beef and lamb and spices. Very common type of gyros here in the Chicago area.
@@pjschmid2251 So you don't have the greek Gyros, but the dish from the middle east? It's funny that according to historic recordings the origins of greek Gyros should be in the small turkish town Ortu Kebab...😂😂😂
@@martinkasper197 it was introduced to Chicago by Greek immigrants. So I wouldn’t call it Middle Eastern and I would call it Greek. It just happens that their recipe was made with beef and lamb. Since it was introduced with that recipe it became the common type of Gyro in America.
@@pjschmid2251 In Germany most greek restaurants and Snack Bars (=fast food Pita gyros) make it with pig and sometimes with chicken.
I am Dutch but my parents come from Suriname. My fathers parents come from India and my mothers parents are from Fiji. Back in 1900's when slavery was not allowed anymore, they (The Dutch, English etc.) created Contract laborers. The VOC (Dutch East India Company) went to Asia (India, Indonesia (Java) and others). To get people to work on their plantation's around the world and in Suriname. This ofcours was never done in a friendly manner. Then after 1904 all that contract stuff stopped. And the Dutch wich owned Suriname told them that they can stay in Suriname or go back home. Many stayed and so allot of food cultures fused. It is why you have allot of Surinamese foods in The Netherlands wich tastes different then the original mostly. It is for everyone what they like better ofcours. So i hope when you come to the Netherlands again you try the Best Surinamese restaurants or take aways places. 👍🏽😇
Glad to see u in Germany again, watching from Puerto Rico.
Oh the bakeries ! We loved them when we visited !
Love when you throw some cooking in. It looks amazing!! I make schnitzel for my husband and I a couple times a month. We get the pork tenderloin at Costco or Sam's Club and prep the meat for a couple months of meals. I have not made it with chicken, but will do so the next time I make it. That last sandwich you guys had looked delicious!!!
Can't wait for more German Food/Content, maybe you can check out some places in the east or north, since you only done Leipzig and Hamburg. Magdeburg and Lübeck would be cool.
I lived in Werl, a small town east of Dortmund for about 3 years. Loved it!
for flaten the schnitzel the efficiant way, use a big pan and you can flat all with one hit
The Nusschleife seems similar to the Bear Claw they sell over here in Oregon.
I like the cooking in the video especially that some stuff isn't from scratch. You guys have such a good vibe. Thank you for another great video. Love from Miami ❤️🌞
Bakeries in US are dying in US but in Philadelphia you can still find bakeries and all Jewish bakeries still have cheese, cherry, lemon or blueberry pastry called danish. There is still plenty of nut breads, great rye or black breads Italian bakeries abound with great canoli, unbelievable cakes.
I wish I could like this a 1000 times.👍👍👍👍👍👍 It is so HARD to find REAL homemade pastry, even in the Midwest!
it's very easy to make red cabbage from scratch ,make lots of it and then freeze it in portions. With appels/Äpfeln in it, taste great.
Hi Deana & Phil! We were in Düsseldorf last week (we looked for you, but didn't see you. LOL) and went to Haus des Döners two days in a row! Super good! I even had a Fanta Exotic. Thanks for the recommendation! We also went to the Edeka across the street, which is a really nice grocery store, to stock up on our favorite German snacks and treats. I sure wish there was a Haus des Döners where we live in Washington State!!!
I love the cooking segment
The Aldi Semmel Knoedel box - we normally get the Au Gratin - the funny part is the font they use. My husband calls it "Bavarian font". Anyway, try the Au Gratin next time. It's so unhealthy. But so yummy.
Life in Germany, Jenna from Canada was sooo astonished last week. All bakeries in Düsseldorf make your Brötchen/ Sandwich how you want it. Shes living since 6 years here
Actually it's 9 years since Jenna has lived in Germany.
Can't wait to try those doners if they are south of Dusseldorf. Coming to Germany in Aug and look forward to your next videos as we will be going to those places too!
Pepsi came out with what they called Pepsi Peeps. The beginning it just tast like Pepsi but then you subtly tast marshmallow flavor, AND I LOVE IT!!!
I d k if they'll bring it back next Easter or not.
My mother had the opportunity to visit Germany for the first time about 10 years ago...my great grandparents were immigrants from there. One of the things she could not get over was how different the flavor and texture of the bread was,,,how much lighter it is than what we have here in the USA.
Ich schaue das Video gerade zum Frühstück. Top Video 👍
I just love your videos. Phil looked like a child at Christmas 🎄
Drizzledorf..love it
Cut the dumplings into 1 cm thick slices and fry them in the pan! Yummie 😋
Ohhh now you're talking!!!
@@DeanaandPhil hi, ein Tipp für euch zum Fleisch klopfen, nehmt statt eures Hammers eine Pfanne oder ein Topf klappt ziemlich gut^^. Dank dem Video gibt es bei uns am Wochenende jetzt auch Schnitzel.
I was missing all the American food you were eating, and I feel like you're appreciating everything I would have missed in the States as well. Personally, I feel like making Schnitzel at home is too much work, but that meal looked great! I will say, though, that we have a lot of fun making Spätzle from scratch. Worth it!
Kinda sounds like friends of mine who can't imagine cooking for just themselves, but I've always felt why not I deserve it. Schnitzel takes for a person who doesn't cook regularly 20 min. You can have the butcher slice them in advance, easy peezy from there and well worth it. Love Spatzle with Chicken Paprikosh, yummy.
When I was stationed in Germany 1978 82. Loved eating the schnitzel the meat was pork with the mushrooms sauce. And we were in Lemgo town centre we would pop into a Greek bar and they sold gyros but the meat was pork 😘😋😋😋🍽️🍽️. I went back there a few years later and most of the places were closed down 😔😔😔 shame
PS.... when you asked Alexa to set a timer mine answered. ... You probably set off hundreds. LOL.
7€?!?!? Here In the SE of Austria with enormous inflation it's still 3,50€ for a Döner and 4€ with cheese (which I prefer). And the best drink ist still either Uludag (Turkish Sprite) or an Efes beer!
Toll to see you two back in D-dorf! Soon... "I'll be beck!" Immediately recognized wonderful Karlsplatz. While you were there, you should have grabbed an a-MA-zing cappuccino at 'Cøffe am Karlsplatz'! They're always delicious works of art!
OMG you are making me so hungry. WOW what an awesome meal.
I would 100% pay $17 for a döner kebab considering I haven't been back to Germany in 5 years and they are one of my favorite foods.
American friends of ours who moved to Ireland 10 years ago recently came back on a visit (we’re British by the way) to us in Reno, Nevada. As I was cooking lunch, the American lady asked us about the food here, commenting that, after living in Ireland she now realised how poor the general quality of food is in the USA. We frequently visit Europe, the UK and Australia and all I could do was agree with her. America gives me cravings for lots of non-American food, especially the basics - bread, butter, eggs, bacon, fish, potatoes, chocolate, candy bars, fruit, all of which taste better and are available with more choice in other countries.
HI GUYSSSS!! Jared and I have been in our Germany feeeels and figured no better way to make us miss it even more was to binge your videos lol. I am craving some schnitzel and pastries now 🥹🥹 miss you guys and hope you are doing well. Sorry we’ve been so MIA on patreon - life has been non stop. 💜💜💜
We hope things get better for you all! 💜 Also, hope you were able to get a schnitzel and pastries! haha
Loved the kitchen cooking. Headed to Aldi's!
It all looks delicious, I'm so thankful that when I was 21 the army sent me to Japan, it was there I learned that exotic gourmet food in my home town is what mama makes for dinner in other places 🤠
I am german and I love Döner as much as you. It is the perfect fast food. It is so hearty because of the meat and the sauce (guys really try to find a shop that uses real meat and not just minced meat). At the same time it is so fresh because of all the vegetables. Then the bread is the next game changer. It needs to be real flat bread and it needs to be toasted. For Sauces I recommend, Garlic, Herb and spicey (all together)
I liked the video , so nice to look at ☺️
I can't believe the prices fort he wonderful pastries. wow. Lucky.
sorry but Döners are a "new" thing. Until 1990 these were unknown in Germany (maybe known in some sections of Berlin?). What was known was "Curry Wurst" which one could get at any corner store with a beer and Semmel.
Interesting combo. I should taste it.
Yay! You’re going to Heidelberg! I went to middle school around that area. It’s been years tho. The base I went to school at is closed. Actually, all the schools I went to on base are closed now 😢
I love the German food videos please show us more. I am definitely in to the German food and Polish food and Austrian food. My ancestors from my mother's side are from those regions.
Deana has been wanting to go to Poland for a while! Let us know if there is anything specific you recommend!
@@DeanaandPhil Well I love seeing the German scenery and food. I would also love seeing the Poland scenery and food, same with Austria. Also have interest in Italy and a couple other European countries. Not so much interested in Scandinavian countries. Not interested in seeing fermented shark or sheep heads. I also definitely love the USA tours. The next time you come to the USA, please have Deana take you to Williamsburg Virginia and the old country, and also Myrtle Beach for the Fantastic seafood buffets and beautiful beaches. Both places are very close to where Deana's family is in South Carolina.
Sehr schön das ihr zwei wieder zurück sind!!!! 😉 Lass mir ch weissen ob ihr mal Bock haben zum Treffen!!! Ich hab Urlaub bis zum 08.06. I’ll take you guys out for lunch or dinner your choice!! 😁
Looks delicious!!!!
You made a delicious looking lunch!!
I was waiting for Phil to say "Panierstraße" 😂
Ich mag dieses Videoformat, schön querbeet, wie es gerade kommt. Außerdem mag ich Bäckereien. Und Döner.
Since I got my 49€ Deutschlandticket, I went to Cologne a few times and tried the Döner that was voted No.1 in Germany. Spoiler alert, it was good, but not the best I've ever had. The bread was fresh, which was very nice, the taste of the meat was okay, but I didn't really like the texture. I'll try "Haus des Döners" next time and maybe it is better. I'm usually quite satisfied with the Döners you can buy on the "Dönermeile" in Krefeld (The street that starts directly at the central station and is littered with Döner Kebab shops.)
Drizzledorf....😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Try out the "Schloss Döner" in Benrath (you know, that southern district of Düsseldorf with the pink castle ;-) )
your meal looks amazing and as allways: if you do it yourself,you know whats in it!!
We have a version of Doner in the Netherlands but in Germany the Doner is from a higher standard and a much better quality.
A good meal deal!
I have to agree with Phil the Döner is my favorite i think. But I've been living in bavaria for about 8 months now (Inspired by you two) and I love the simplicity of german quisine and the best bier in der welt.
I feel that way about the greek gyros. I just love them❤
You must trie the "Mangal Döner" (also avalible in Düsseldorf). The owner is Lucas Podolski.
It is one of the best!!!
The orange glasses.. brilliant! XD
Good video.
I agree !
We'll be in Dusseldorf Wednesday to Saturday as it's my birthday on Friday so may follow a similar routine to this...
$17 for a Doener is just ridiculous , here is Colorado you can go to a Mediterranean Shop and get a Doener for $5.00
Lmaooo the tinted chapstick at the end had me weak!! He was like what is this?! 🤣🤣
Ich hatte letzten Sonntag Wiener Schnitzel (Kalb) mit Bratkartoffeln gemacht. So einfach, so schnell soooo lecker. Aber ich glaube Deutsches Brot mit Leberwurst und Döner wären auch meine 1.Wahl , wenn ich nach Hause komme
The Japanese have their version of Hahnchen Schnitzel it;s Tori Katsu which is very popular in Japan and Hawaii. We have it with either gravy either brown, chicken gravy, soy sauce, Katsu sauce, or ketchup.
Pork or veal the traditional smothered in gravy brown severs with cabbage red and spetle
While in Germany as an American soldier , I enjoyed much of the native foods available . Being of German descent , my German grandmother sure could cook . Fantastic meals . Beal being my favorite .
That’s veal !
That ending 🤣
