Traditional Strasbourg Foods: What to Eat in Strasbourg, France 

I LIVE IN STRASBOURG 5 YEARS AND I CAN SAY I WOULD NEVER MOVING FROM HERE. EVERY FOOD HAVE HISTORY WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT AND THAT IS MAKING THE FOOD MORE BETTER

You can EAT in Strasbourg!! big time

Christmas markets in Strasbourg are some of the finest in Europe. We ate and walked all day long. Lots of artisan goods worth taking home as well. The church in the square is an engineering marvel.

As a German, who lives in Karlsruhe, on the border with Alsace, and who has been to Strasbourg several times and to Alsace even more often, I must say that Alsace belongs to France. -Germans who lived a few generations before would stone me for this statement. Because so many people died for this border question. -But it belongs to France. It seems right to me that history ended the way it did. 🇪🇺🇫🇷🇩🇪

Hello I'm Alsacien I'm from Strasbourg I really like your video it's super cool to discover our region throughout the world of the month in the United States. Thank you very match.😊😊😊

Oh why, oh why do I watch these when I still have a couple of hours to dinner I am hungry...but the videos are so good.

Strasburger born and raised, thank you very much for the spotlight ! We were indeed a few centuries ago what could be called "a popular area" relying on farm work, hence lots of dishes with few and basic ingredients but able to fill you up for the whole day. While in Strasbourg I strongly advise to taste the food and seek the historical anecdotes ! Take care

Yummy!

Sounds, looks good

I loved this content. Thanks.

Thanks for your videos, I really like your positivity!!!

Going soon so this is perfect timing!

The onion quiche type looked so good my family is from Southern germany

We very often share ''tarte flambée''. It's very rare to have one for yourself. I've only really just seen tourists and students eat one on their own. You slice it into however many portions you need and everyone around the table gets a slice, then you order another one, maybe with different toppings. My advice is to start with the ''tarte flambée normale''. The basic ingredients are ''bibeleskaes'' (creamy cheese), onions and ''lardons'' (pancetta). And then, you may want to start ordering tartes flambées with additional toppings. A classic is '' tarte flambée gratinée'' (basic ingredients + emmental), ''forestière'' (basic ingredients + mushrooms), ''forestière gratinée'' (basic ingredients + emmental and mushrooms), ''munster'' (basic ingredients + a strong local cheese). You can have a classic ''pommes-calva'' for dessert (apples and a liquor that is burnt on the tarte at your table, very pretty to look at). If you speak to people in their 60s-70s-80s, many will tell you they wouldn't eat ''tarte flambée'' as children. It became popular later on, and it started off with the basic ingredients only, and then we just started experimenting with different ingredients! Another fun fact is that we call it ''tarte flambée'', whereas the ''French from the outside'' (that's what many older Alsatian people call non-Alsatian people who are French) try very hard to call it ''flammekueche''. The best places to eat them are in winstub and if you're in Strasbourg, it's best to go to the villages around Strasbourg. I quite like the one at the ''brasserie Storig'' in Schiltigheim, and the one at ''La Carpe'' in Souffel, at ''ce cher Hans'' in Vendenheim, or ''au Boeuf'' in Plobsheim but I'm sure you can find good ones in every village!

You forgot to mention the world famous tea shop in the back ground. This is probably the best tea you can get in France.

Yes, obviously Your Finest video Ever!!🍒🍒

I cant believe in five weeks I will finally be there and travelling in Germany.

I could go for any of that right now

Best channel around

Great vid!!! Next, do Koln!!!!!!!!!

Wait... this channel has existed for 2 years and I've only just found it despite being a Wolters World watcher? I know how I'll be spending my weekend, catching up.

New drinking game: take a shot every time Mark says "fantastic". 😃

Now I’m hungry.

Chokrout und beer wunderbar

I live in Strasbourg! This is all true! I don't know why this was on my for you page...

Flammkuchen are pretty commonly available over here in BW as well. Zwiebelkuchen too.

I better not go there...I'd eat myself to death..... This all looked soooo good!

What is that thing with the egg at 1:02 ?? Looks like it has mushrooms and cheese too, that looks wonderful!

been to Strasbourg twice in 2022.. the only thing that puts me off as a tourist (who doesn't speak French) is that surprisingly not a lot of people speak German OR English. Especially the younger workers at the mall barely understood any English and spoke no German. And even though they're right on the border of Germany, the frenchman just don't put any effort into trying to speak another language. there was this amazing waiter in Le Gruber tho, he was just fantastic and so full of energy! Spoke both German and English and even tried saying his thanks to us in our own language. Sadly he wasn't there when we went for the second time:( overall Strasbourg is an amazing destination and I'll totally go back again.

Thanks for the review but there is so much more to say about the wine. Indeed white is the best in Alsace (red, based on Pinot Noir grape, is often a bit light or acidic in my view). White Alsacian wines are powerful wines, very tasty, quite often a bit sweet (sometimes too sweet, but precisely you can choose). In Alsace wines are classified first by the grape. Gewurstraminer is very aromatic, not to the taste of everyone. You easily find it as well as « Vendanges Tardives » which means the wine is more sweet and powerful (a must with « foie gras »). Riesling is my favourite one and goes with a lot of meals. Pinot Gris is very interesting too. Then Sylvaner is a bit light for me. You mentionned « Grand Cru », in fact all these wines can get this mention which points to (usually) the best wines, but also the most expensive (in shops Alsace wines range from 5 Euros to 30 Euros a bottle very often, and with 15-20 Euros you get really very good wines, with better value for money than other more renowned wines French areas).

Hi! I'm a student in Strasbourg but rarely tasted the main dishes that you've mentioned in your video. I saw some of restaurants in your video but could you please give us some details about which restaurants we might be able to taste those delicacies? That will be a great help, thanks!
