Assignment completed
Prior to leaving Australia, I was given an assignment – to try a hamburger from Hamburg. Or maybe it was to find out if hamburgers were from Hamburg. I don’t really remember, so it may just have been to take a picture of one.
Anyway, Mikey and I spent about 15 minutes changing trains at the Hamburg train station when travelling from Copenhagen to Berlin. Unfortunately, during that time I was unable (and perhaps unwilling) to seek out an authentic Hamburg hamburger. So, in order to complete my assignment, I offer the following photo of a real German hamburger that I had while I was in Tübingen. And according to Wikipedia, the hamburger was named after the Hamburg steak, that originated in Hamburg. Assignment completed.
And, as I am getting a few requests for more photos of food, here is a picture of a couple of delicious patisserie tarts (lemon merigue and berry) that we had in the gourmet eatery at the Galerie Lafayette store in Berlin. A prelude to Paris….
