Lunchroulette at the German Market again

I went back to the German Market again and picked a random stall to buy my lunch. This time it was one of the Pretzel stalls. The salami pretzel sounded good so I bought one of those.

Salami Pretzel

The pretzel was pretty much what you expect: soft, chewy and very salty on top. I had change left so I thought I would try a dessert next. The choice of desserts was reasonably wide and included pancakes, sweets, cakes, marshmallows or chocolate coated fruit kebabs. The dice took me to a marshmallow stand.

Marshmallows

I chose an orange and a gingerbread one. The marshmallow is softer and stickier than the sort you get in bags, and sits on a small waffle or wafer-like disc.

The German Market is in full swing in Birmingham and I am still using the random number app to choose my lunch.

Chicken Schnitzel

The dice took me to a schnitzel stand which offered a choice of different meats. I let the dice decide and came away with a chicken schnitzel. I also got some chips to go with it.

Chicken Schnitzel

I had asked for the mushroom sauce and I think they gave me the curry sauce but it was still good, and went well with the schnitzel.

Half metre sausage

The choice was a bit easier this time. The dice chose the half-metre bratwurst stand so I didn't have any extra choices to make. I didn't let the dice choose my condiments, I added half ketchup and half mustard.

Half-metre sausage

The sausage was fine but the bread was a bit chewy. Although it looks a lot of food, I still felt hungry afterwards.
