From the looks of the menu, you might think that Speisekammer is as Teutonic as could be  red meat and potatoes abound  but once the food arrives, you remember that this is Northern California. The dishes have been lightened up, and there are even a couple of vegetarian options. Things to look for: spaetzle, red cabbage, pickled herring, Nurenburger bratwurst. The decor somehow balances hunting lodge and church basement with stylish aplomb. Speisekammer also boasts one of the best selections of German beer on tap in the East Bay.
