German Pork Knuckles

Drubba was founded around 1955 in the Black Forest- Germany's most popular holiday destination. It started as a shop selling souvenirs and offering boat trips on Lake Titisee. Today they have two hotels and there are several groups which stop over at Drubba for lunch and for souvenir shopping in the region of Regensburg. The clocks available at the Black Forest Clock Center offers a wide selection of cuckoo clocks, wall clocks, grandfather clocks and here you can also see a 15 minute demonstration of the story of the development of the making of the cuckoo clock. The Cuckoo clocks are made in a place around 6 kilometers away from Titisee known as Hönes cuckoo clocks. They are very famous and they make original black forest clocks.

We had our lunch at Drubba..

 A platter of pork knuckles, german sausages, french fries and rice was served.


 I had a piece of the pork knuckles.

Scrumptious!



Then a piece of black forest cake for each and everyone of us.
My favorite..

    What a wonderful trip you are having! I enjoyed looking at Mt Titlis, but it looked cold there. The food certainly looks yummy.

    Yeah we joked about this place called 'straight straight die' in Hokkien for Titisee. Did you buy any cuckoo clock home? Thought that was too cumbersome so discarded the idea. Bananaz like to travel light. No pork knuckles for us the whole tour on halal meals.

    Can anyone tell me what part of the pig that the "pigs knee" actually comes from? I went to my local butcher and asked for "pigs knees" and he laughed and said pigs don't have knees? I was in Germany and Czech this summer and that is what they had called them. PLEASE HELP!!! I LOVE THE PIGS KNEES and want to make it here!
    Thank you

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
