Franconian specialties
Various
Meat dishes from Franconia
In Franconia, too, the cuisine consists mainly of dishes based on good meat. In addition to this, we also offer exquisite dishes for vegetarians. As everywhere in Germany, most specialties in Franconia are made from pork. One of the most classic dishes is probably the Schäufele. The popular dish is made from pork shoulders, which are baked until crispy and then served up with a diamond-shaped rind cut into them. Franconian pork shank is also not missing from the menu at Backöfele. The popular delicacy is served in our restaurant with a special dark beer sauce as well as potato dumplings and sauerkraut as a side dish.
Franconian fish specialties
Fish is also a must on any Franconian menu. While other Franconian restaurants often serve carp from the Aischgrund, in our restaurant you can try Franconian river pike perch. The fresh fish is served under a delicious herbed potato crust with crayfish sauce and Vichy carrots. Equally delicious is our trout fillet, which is juniper-smoked and served in combination with fresh cream horseradish and toasted rye bread.
Classic Franconian bratwurst
If you think of Franconian cuisine, you can't avoid bratwurst. Franconian bratwurst is not only particularly versatile and goes well with almost any side dish, but can be prepared just as differently. Depending on the region, the classic Nuremberg bratwurst, for example, is prepared with different spices. A decisive flavor carrier of the Nuremberg Bratwurst is marjoram. In addition to this, it differs in size and method of preparation. As a rule, it is fried in a pan or on the grill and simply served in a bun with a little mustard or horseradish. You also have the chance to order fresh Nuremberg bratwursts from us. But we are also happy to serve you a typical Franconian bratwurst with marjoram in different variations. You can try our delicious bratwurst on wine sauerkraut and with fresh sourdough bread or order "Blaue Zipfel". These are sausages that cook in a vinegar broth for about 15 minutes. The decoction consists of water, vinegar, onion rings, carrots as well as juniper berries, spices and a bay leaf and provides the typical full-bodied taste.
Our wine list - the best drops of the Franconian region
A traditional Franconian dish should always be accompanied by a good drop of Franconian wine. In our restaurant in Würzburg you have the opportunity to discover the best wines of Franconia. We present you a wine list selected with much love, which reflects the diversity of Franconia. Similar to France, wine also serves as a food companion in Franconia and should never be spurned. The typical Franconian wine is usually dry, easy to drink and goes well with almost any dish. Therefore, almost any wine from our menu is suitable for your dish. Our trained staff will be happy to recommend a wine to match your dish.
Our desserts - Franconian desserts, fruit brandies and more
Besides the classic Franconian dessert, Franconian Küchle, we also offer a good selection of international desserts. Taste your way through our dessert menu, which always has something fruity of the season for you, in addition to traditional. And all chocolate lovers will also find what they are looking for here. But the best is our fresh Kaiserschmarrn. Be sure to try it. Of course, you can also enjoy various coffee specialties with us or reach for a fruit brandy. We offer selected brandies such as Williams pear brandy, raspberry brandy, cherry brandy and plum brandy.
