Culinary Delights from the Land of Lederhosen
Bratkartoffel is a traditional German side dish served with almost anything…sausages, burgers, meatloaf, steaks, fried fish, you name it. “Brat” means fried, and “Kartoffel” is German for potato. Most of the time, the plural is used: “Bratkartoffeln”. Notice the ‘n’? It’s one of many ways to express the plural of a German word. But who… [Continue Reading]
So nice. So kind. The first yelp reviews of our Bavarian Bistro are in. We truly appreciate the thoughtfulness and sophistication of our first reviewers. Thank you, ladies, for your kind words.

We hear this question on a daily basis: What is the difference between bratwurst and knockwurst? At our Austin, TX food trailer, Chef Keem’s Bavarian Bistro, we serve authentic German sausages.

The Bavarian Bistro Austin food trailer has found a business location. Look for bratwurst and schnitzel at 200 Congress Avenue, North parking lot of Austonian
On Saturday, June 13th, we conducted a trial run with our Bavarian Bistro trailer. It took several hours to connect everything and to put all our equipment and supplies in place. Thank God it all worked like a charm. So we served bratwurst, sauerkraut, and schnitzel sandwiches to a few friends we’d called up on… [Continue Reading]
Talking like a Texan? I can’t even speak English without my German accent pokin’ its nose out, every three words or so. Let alone talking like a Texan!
