I’d prefer not to even think of the calories I’ve amassed at Siegfried’s. The plates of spaetzle I’ve consumed alone could probably put me in the grave. This Bavarian deli is where I go to shop for hard-to-find sausages, wurst, bacon, ham, wieners, sauerkraut and the like when I’m hosting one of my choucroute garni bashes. The selection of meats, cheeses, breads and specialty German grocery items at Siegfried’s is enormous. But then there’s also the café, which is my real reason for returning so frequently. The Reuben sandwich is the best in town, and I love an order of schnitzel or a brat with (of course) spaetzle and kraut on a cold Saturday afternoon. Naturally, it’s wise to have a glass of imported beer alongside.
