When someone told me that Sacher Torte, which takes its name from the Hotel Sacher in Vienna, where it was first made in 1832 - 10 years before pilsner was invented - is traditionally dry, I wondered if my slice was the original one. The Sacher torte - layered chocolate cake with a fondant-like chocolate icing and a dollop of whipped cream - tasted as if it had been sitting out for part of the day. Other menu offerings included marinated pork ribs or a breaded pork cutlet with homemade potato salad, but I highly recommend the boar.ĭessert, on the other hand, was not so great. I determined that beer tastes better when you drink it where it was brewed.Īfter opting to forgo the starters, which included goulash soup served in a breadcrust bowl or beef broth with liver dumplings, I went straight into a main course of wild boar with rose hip sauce - like sweet gravy with cranberries - served with bread dumplings. I started my meal off with a half-liter of Pilsner Urquell, but you can also try Volba sladku (the brewer’s choice), radler (beer and Sprite) or Gambrinus, which is unfiltered lager. When I went, the place was full of locals and tourists. Once there, head to the Pilsner Urquell brewery near the Radbuza River to sample a few beers and have a meal in the Na Spilce restaurant. Pilsen is about 90 minutes east of Grafenwoehr and Vilseck.
