Bangaloreans can now savour special dishes from Germany. Taj West End adds new variety to it’s special Sunday brunch. The Brunch also includes a variety of cuisines such as Lebanese, Italian and Indian.

Markus Trefz, a senior food technologist at Nesse and Master Craft Butcher has come to Bangalore to teach the Indian chefs the art of making sausages.

The Sunday brunch will now feature a variety of sausages that would usually be found only in Germany and the sausages can be savoured in the same fashion that one would if in Germany.

Markus Trefz, who arrived in bangalore on June 8 from Colombo, says that he has not had the time to taste Indian food yet. He complains about the traffic, an increasingly troublesome matter for all Bangaloreans today.

He smiles as he repeats his wife’s first question as he called her on reaching India. “Have you seen monkeys?” 
“People have more money now and buy the imported sausages, when they can do it all right here.

The meat is of the same quality. Factories are small in India,” says the Master Craftsman. For the health conscious, the meat protein of the product is reduced and other additives are put in, thereby maintaining the taste of the sausage.

Eisbein, a traditional German dish that contains pork leg and goes well with Sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. Gebratener Schweine Nacken, roasted pork neck from Bavaria, served with red cabbage and dumplings.

Huhner Schinken, chicken ham, an alternative to pork that can be eaten cold on bread. The Vienna Sausages are delightfully slender and taste great.

Blutworst or the blood sausage, is to be eaten cold on bread or with mustard from the South of Germany. Leberwurst or liver sausage tastes good.

The Lyoner Sausage, from the Western region Elsab, can also be eaten cold, with bread.

The Debreziner Sausage, from the Eastern parts of Germany can be eaten hot or cold. Side dishes include, Sauerkraut or pickled white cabbage, Bayrisches Speck Kraut, which is Sauerkraut with bacon bits and Rotkohl mit Apfel und Rotwein, red cabbage with apple and red wine, which can be eaten with duck and pork.

The Leberkase or Bavarian meat loaf, which they served with a fried egg, can sent one taste buds into overdrive. For Sausage lovers and foodies alike, the Sunday Brunch promises to be a unique and mouth-watering feast.
