There are some generic American dishes, too, including fried chicken, heavily battered, then covered with cream gravy and a generous shake of pepper. Wonderful finger-licking french fries accompanied this dish, along with a piece of buttered Texas toast. But Metzler's barbecue sauce was delightful, mellow, smoky and tangy. A side of German potato salad was served warm with lots of mustard and vinegar. One drawback was a pool of grease surrounding the meat.
Some versions come with cream cheese, and all are delicious.
You can also buy a French-bread sized version of these strudels to go. Service is friendly and efficient, and there were no waits on either visit. So whether your temptation is brats or barbecue, you can find both at Metzler's. Tell us what you think.
