I’ve written up a second post about my pre-Chris I’ve written up a second post about my pre-Christmas day in Mainz, this time banging on about the wonderful tour I went on (courtesy of @mainzplus_citymarketing). So many things I’d never noticed before; so many totally astonishing facts and lovely personal anecdotes from my guide. Link to tales of gorgeous half-timbered houses (this one on the left is Mainz’s oldest, built in around 1500), controversial 1970s buildings from renowned Danish architects, lunch options and much more... in my bio ☝️
[#collaboration] Just before Christmas, @mainzplus [#collaboration] Just before Christmas, @mainzplus_citymarketing kindly treated me to a day‘s exploration of the city, and I’m not ashamed to admit I spent at least 15 minutes of it being mesmerized by the making of deep-fried potato pancakes. I’ve written up the Christmas market part of the day - and the delicious goose and dumpling in a wine tavern part too - on my website, link in bio 🎄 If you’ve not been to Mainz’s Christmas market it’s definitely one to bookmark for this year! Have you got any new favourites from last season that I should make a note of, please?

Please forgive the post-Christmas appearance of pr Please forgive the post-Christmas appearance of pre-Christmas food, but I wanted to share this Stollen I smuggled over to London for my family. It’s no ordinary Stollen, for it was developed by Bernd Siepert, one of Germany’s most renowned pastry chefs, and contains an ingredient that’s a specialty of the region from whence it came (the Odenwald): potato 🥔 It made for an unusually moist loaf that went beautifully with a cup of tea ☕️ Definitely worth seeking out if you’re visiting the region next Christmas. (Café Siefert is in Michelstadt but I bought this from their stand at the Wiesbaden Christmas market.)
