Good morning!

Since we're hanging out in Germany these days we thought we would show you what a German

breakfast looks like.

We've setup the table and as you can see it consists of a lot of different breads - like

we have a few buns here - and also meats.

Germans like to have salami, ham and just different deli cuts for breakfast.

We also have a few different cheeses, smoked salmon and - of course- you can't forget Muesli.

It has been a very nice change in diet since we left Asia.

Yeah, I'd say.

It is quite the feast I must say as well.

This is a completely different type of meal from what we were having in Asia.

Most of the time in Asia we would have meals and breakfasts consisting of rice, noodle

dishes and sometimes dim sum.

This is a much heartier type of meal.

One of the big changes since leaving Asia is that we're actually eating all of our breakfasts

at home at the kitchen table.

Whereas in Asia we were often going to a little market or like little street stalls where

they prepare the food in front of us.

In a way it is kind of nice just rolling out of bed in your pajamas and being able to eat

at home without having to get dressed.

With your bed hair and everything.

Anyways, enough talking.

It is time to dig in.

Yes.

That concludes breakfast.

We certainly took care of things and now we just have empty plates in front of us.

And a whole lot of dish washing to do.

Sausage man!

My new best friend.

You can't come to Berlin and not have currywurst.

Actually, yesterday was the very first time I tried it and I instantly loved it.

Today we're going to be trying two different kinds of curry wurst.

We're going to be trying some from the East side and also some from the West side and

they're completely different.

The currywurst is considered fast food here in Germany.

It is a sausage that is steamed and then fried.

It is sliced up and served with ketchup and curry powder over top.

It is delicious!

First bite!

It's amazing.

I've been eating these since I first got to Berlin and I haven't gotten sick of them.

They are so tasty.

I'm going to make sure I've got lots of curry sauce on mine.

Oh, wow!

I can see why these are very popular in Germany.

And if just eating currywurst isn't enough for you one of the more quirky attractions

in Berlin is visiting the currywurst museum where of our course apparently you get to

have currywurst at the end of your tour.

So the sausage can be eaten many different ways.

Today I've got it with french fries but you can order it with in a bun with a side our

sauerkraut or even with a baked potato so you're not limited for options.

You can typically pick up the currywurst for anywhere between 2.50 to 3 Euro just on its

own and if you want to get a side like fries it usually is about 5 Euros.

If Currywurst is to your liking, you'll want to check out this quirky museum devoted to

Berlin's favorite sausage.

One of the coolest things about this museum is that they have a giant sofa shaped like

a Currywurst.

For today's video you are in for a sweet treat - quite literally - because we are in Germany

and we've decided to taste test a few of our favorite chocolates.

Chocolate.

The brand we are testing is Ritter Sport.

We have six different varieties - let's show them.

So you've got three in your hand and I've got three in mine.

We're going to be trying all of these and letting you know what our favorites are.

Now the first thing to know is that there is a special way to open these.

Audrey is going to show us.

I'm a pro - watch this!

Okay, that one malfunctioned.

One more.

You just crack it open and ooh la la - chocolate!

Okay, the first kind we're going to be trying is this yellow pack and it is a corn flake

chocolate.

It is regular milk chocolate but stuffed with cornflakes.

I've never had chocolate with corn flakes but I like both things, so I have high expectations

here.

I've had this before and it is one of my favorites.

So a bite each.

Oh, wow, that is a crunchy one.

How do you like it?

It's amazing.

It reminds me of a chocolate we have in North America - I think it is called Crunch or Crunchy.

It is like the Crunchy bar but this is better.

The next one we're trying is the red package - this is Marzipan.

It is basically an almond paste made with honey and sugar.

That is the filling inside of this chocolate.

It also looks like it is a darker chocolate.

I'm not a fan of dark chocolate because I prefer milk chocolate.

We'll see how this goes.

Here.

That is very rich and decadent.

Do you like it?

I prefer milk chocolate.

I've already said that.

It's not my favorite but the Marzipan is very sweet so it kind of balances the bitterness

of the dark chocolate, so it is okay.

Oh, I need water!

Okay, now this is the one I've been really wanting to have.

I'm a huge fan of peppermint chocolate and Ritter Sport is high quality chocolate so

I have very high expectations for this.

Okay.

Let's give it a try.

Oh, wow!

What do you think?

It's a lot like those After Eight really thin chocolate strips - that is what it reminds

me of.

Yeah, that is really good.

It is also like the Junior Mints that we have in North America as well.

Number four.

This one is the Espresso flavor.

Do you normally like espresso?

I do not like coffee, so no espresso for me.

Yeah, we're not coffee drinkers so I'm not sure how we're going to like these ones.

This is torture.

Okay, it has a strong coffee flavor but it is milk chocolate and not dark chocolate so

it is bearable.

I think if you put enough sugar in anything you can make it taste good.

Even though I don't like this flavor normally, I actually quite like it in chocolate form.

Next up we have a new flavor that I haven't seen before.

It is called Olympia.

It has Yogurt, honey, nuts and grape sugar if my translation is correct.

That sounds interesting.

Let's see.

Take a square.

Cough.

Ewwww!

Oh, it's an interesting one.

Do you like it?

It doesn't have a very distinct flavor considering it has four unique ingredients in the filling.

Yeah, I agree with that.

I just coughed on the chocolate so that I get the rest of it afterwards.

Not a bad strategy.

Last but certainly not least we have coconut.

I'm a huge coconut fan.

Do you think you're going to like this one?

I've actually been having this chocolate when Sam is not around.

I go into the supermarket and get a square for myself and gobble it up.

I'm just finding this out now.

That is evil.

Here you go.

That is the best one in my opinion.

This looks so good that I'm taking two squares.

Oh, wow!

It's like big chunks of coconut.

It's creamy, it's sweet.

I feel like I'm back in the tropics enjoying a coconut shake.

That is by far the best one as far as I'm concerned.

I'm going to choose my top two and if I had to rank them I'd say coconut is number one

and maybe the cornflakes number two.

I really enjoyed those.

What about you?

Well, for me I would go coconut also number one but then I would go peppermint number

two.

I think we've figured out some quite important here.

If we were to buy the coconut flavor Ritter Sport we're going to be fighting over it.

Quite literally.

Hey, give it to me.

If any of you chocolate lovers find yourselves in Germany there is actually a Ritter Sport

chocolate factory located outside of Stuttgart.

I went there a couple of years ago and there chocolate store is amazing.

They have so much variety and all of the packaging is so colorful so you can certainly spend

a few hours there picking up souvenirs to take back home or to eat before you go back

home.

If you're in Germany traveling and you want to try the Ritter Sport they are 99 cents

of a Euro.

A little history into this chocolate bar - as you can see it is square shape because it

was actually meant to fit inside of a gentleman's blazer inside the front pocket.

If they were ever at the theater - or the cinema - and they needed something to munch

on they could discretely pull it out and have their Ritter Sport.

Yum.

That's clever.

I just need to spit it out.

You didn't like that?

Oh gosh Audrey don't be so dramatic.

The longer I keep it in my mouth the worse it gets.

Jeez.

Stop being weird.

Coconut, my turn.

Me.

I've only talked twice.

Do you want to do it?

Are you sure?

Of course, you cannot come to Berlin and not eat a Wurst or a sausage.

I've just ordered myself one from the street.

They have lots of local stands and this was only one Euro and thirty five cents.

Big bite!

That is so good and I got it with mustard, which is even tastier.
