Duisburg restaurants offer traditional Rhenish fare — simple, hearty meals — and of course, that famous German brew. You’ll find great food and drink at some of the city’s restaurant breweries, as well as more elegant Mediterranean-style dishes.
Duisburg Dishes
Sauerbraten
This famous Rhenish dish includes pickled roast beef with stewed apples. It usually spends a few days marinating in vinegar and other spices before it is ready to serve.
Halver Hahn
While the English name of this meal may bring a smirk to your face (it means “one half of a cock”), this delicious dish will leave you smiling. Made with a dark rye bread, cheese and mustard, this is a traditional tasty treat.
Himmel un Ääd
It means heaven and earth and you might find it difficult to disagree. This traditional dish consists of blood sausage and onions with apple-mashed potatoes.
Äädze Zupp
As hard as it is to speak out aloud, Äädze Zupp is a thick pea soup that is also typical of the local cuisine.
