Some of the local papers have named her place the best German food in the area.
I believe it. The menu sounds excellent and has the kind of food you'd see at restaurants in Germany. I've always wondered how Hungarian goulash got associated with German food, but restaurants in Germany do serve it pretty regularly, so it makes sense that she'd serve it. (Either way, it's damn good.)
I looked to see what beer she serves, and it's BYOB. I don't mind bringing in a cooler with some good stuff. I used to do that at Salt Lick. However, I'll bet a lot of customers are Army guys from Fort Hood who had been stationed in Germany and miss the food and beer. She should have some German beer on draft, though I understand that there are a lot of goofy TABC regulations and costs associated with that. As a former bar owner, nobody knows that better than you.
No offense to your tenant, but that's about like the best English food in the area. I can name 20-30 Greek, Italian, French, Mediterranean, American Steakhouse & Seafood places much better than the best German restaurant I've been too. And I've spent a lot of time on Germany, as well as New Braunfels, Fredricksburg, Kerville.
I'm not much into German food either but some people like Deez enjoy it.
If the all knowing gubmint is going to add to the list of forced requirements to “protect” the citizenry, I would like to submit some ideas:
- force commies and socialists out of the country
-don’t encourage and assist unvaccinated illegals to enter the country
- don’t leave your citizens behind in a war torn country from which you have just screwed up a troop withdrawal so bad that 13 soldiers died and you also left $85billion of military equipment in enemy hands
- quit borrowing and spending money you will never repay because inflation is hurting everyone
-stop supporting false/failed ideologies that control BLM, race baiters, CRT dipshites, and climate change weenies
Etc. etc.

How is this possible in a blue state?
New projection shows continued severe strain on Oregon hospitals
Hospitalizations peaked at 1,178 COVID-19 cases on Sept. 1, and critical care resources remain under extreme strain with roughly half of all intensive care units in the state filled with COVID-19 patients who are largely unvaccinated. The highly contagious delta variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has driven a surge in cases this summer.

Just shut up and take the shot so Biden can try to get re-elected! He has a plan damnit!
Hahahahahahababa! Our resident media-lackeys on this board fail again:
Our Most Reliable Pandemic Number Is Losing Meaning
A new study suggests that almost half of those hospitalized with COVID-19 have mild or asymptomatic cases.

Ban this mofo - spreading misinformation:
“As we look to shift from cases to hospitalizations as a metric to drive policy and assess level of risk to a community or state or country,” Doron told me, referring to decisions about school closures, business restrictions, mask requirements, and so on, “we should refine the definition of hospitalization. Those patients who are there with rather than from COVID don’t belong in the metric.”

So these are patients hospitalized for another situation who pop positive on the tests, right?
I think a better metric is ICU usage. Hospitals don't use ICU's lightly. A nurse who works for me described her Labor Day weekend working as an ER nurse. She said when she did ICU she had two patients for the shift. As an ER nurse with no ICU access she had 4-5 patients on vents or bi-pap waiting on a transfer to a hospital with ICU access.
Based on my recollection, the % of covid patients in the ICU (when data was available) was lower than in the general hospital patient category. So, if 50% of all hospital patients were covid for example, then maybe 25% had covid in the ICU. As stated here many times, most hospitals operate at 75% capacity in the ICU on the regular without covid.

Natural immunity. Who knew...?
Natural Immunity Longer Lasting Than Protection From COVID-19 Vaccines: Dr. Robert Malone
Natural Immunity Longer Lasting Than Protection From COVID-19 Vaccines: Dr. Robert Malone
I knew. But nobody in the federal ******* government asked for my perspective.
I love German food and have it at least once a month. If you want to drive a little further, Eve's in Lampasas is also very awesome. I was shocked how good the food was considering it's in Lampasas. I live a little over an hour away and my wife and I will drive there to eat.
Menu
If you want to drive down to Georgetown you have to eat at the Walburg German Restaurant (used to be name Walburg General Store). They are under new ownership and I'm not sure if any of the recipes have changed, but this was the best German food I've ever eaten in the US. The original owner has passed away, but all of the recipes were her family recipes from Germany. She was a very grumpy old German lady and would not mind giving you the business. She was awesome.

Of course I go look at the Walburg menu an now they have steak, chicken fried steak, salmon, hamburgers, etc on the menu. Maybe the actual German food hasn't changed, but the new owners added a lot of stuff to the menu.
Another radio host who urged listeners to boycott COVID-19 vaccines dies from COVID-19
"Last month, four conservative radio talk show hosts who had promoted anti-vaccine and anti-mask views succumbed to the virus:
• Marc Bernier, a longtime Daytona Beach, Fla., talk show host who once called himself "Mr. Anti-Vax,” died after he was hospitalized for complications of COVID-19. He was 65. In July, in what would be his final tweet, Bernier compared the U.S. government to Nazis in its push to get people vaccinated.
• Phil Valentine, a syndicated Nashville talk show host who recorded a parody song, “Vaxman,” mocking the vaccine, died following a monthlong battle with COVID-19. He was 61.
While Valentine was in the hospital, his family released a statement saying he “regrets not being more vehemently ‘Pro-Vaccine’ and looks forward to being able to more vigorously advocate that position as soon as he is back on the air, which we all hope will be soon. PLEASE GO GET VACCINATED!”
• Jimmy DeYoung, a nationally syndicated Chattanooga, Tenn.-based Christian preacher who said world governments were using vaccines to control people, died in mid-August after contracting COVID-19 earlier in the month. He was 81.
On his "Prophecy Today" radio show, DeYoung promoted the baseless conspiracy theory that the Pfizer vaccine would make women sterile and directed his listeners to misinformation about COVID-19 on Facebook.
• Dick Farrel, a South Florida talk show host who called the U.S. government's coronavirus mitigation efforts a “scam-demic,” died from complications of COVID-19 in early August. He was 65.
According to friends, Farrel's views on vaccines changed after he contracted the virus. "RIP Dick Farrel," his close friend Amy Leigh Hair wrote in a Facebook post. "He is the reason I took the shot. He texted me and told me to 'Get it!' He told me this virus is no joke and he said, 'I wish I had gotten it!'"
According to Johns Hopkins University, there have been more than 41 million coronavirus cases in the United States since the pandemic began. More than 662,000 Americans have died.
The overwhelming majority of recent cases, hospitalizations and deaths have been among unvaccinated people."

Seems like a self-correcting problem - no wonder the leftists hate it.
Eve's sounds good. I was a big fan of rahm schnitzel and any paprika-based schnitzel (whether with the red peppers or in a cream sauce). Very tasty, and it looks like they serve it with spaetzle. I'm a huge fan of that - enough that I actually bought a special grater to make it. I used to go to Walburg from time to time. Their food was good, and their beer selection was very impressive.
One thing that I notice though - German restaurants in the US will serve lots of different schnitzels and brats, which is great. I love those. However, one thing that is often missing is the roasted meat. In Germany, restaurants also usually had roasted pork (schweinebraten) usually served with a dark beer-based sauce. I was a big fan. Some would also serve a beef roast that was marinated and served with a sweet and sour but somewhat "raisiny" sauce (called sauerbraten). And my favorite was when they'd roast pork but leave a thin layer of fat on the top but then broil the top and then serve it with the dark beer sauce (called krustenbraten). Sounds nasty to have fat, but the broiling basically turned it into what amounted to a pork rind - best tasting fat you'll ever eat. And of course, if you really feel old school and are extremely hungry, you can get the pork knuckle (schweinshaxe). Awesome stuff.

That's what they'd say if Bubba was Bubba-ing on this topic. That said, very relevant stories if you ask me. [insert Kermit sipping tea here]
I may be a bit of a contrarian/confounder but I try to call it like I see it without bias.
Pork knuckle is the best. The Paulaner restaurant at the Kempinski hotel in Beijing is really good.
