Tch...the youth of today....

Bratti - Bratwurst. Tchermany's most famous sausage! Must be eaten mit Senf (German mustard) and accompanied by a German beer. Or two... Und, vielleicht, pommes mit mayo'

Skottel - A sort of portable hotplate thing rather like a flattened wok.

Espetada - Large chunks of garlic-rubbed beast on a long skewer with onions and peppers.

Schnelli - Schnell Imbiss - German fast food van. Can be anything from an old VW Caravanette (like, yeah, a Splittie, dude....) to a restaurant on wheels operated by uniformed staff with Teutonic efficiency. At the 1975 Wildenrath Air Show, we had some 90 Schnellis to feed the hungry crowd. Well, there were over 100000 people attending! The Schnellis all arrived in convoy - a hilarious sight watching various Wurstwagens of all shapes and sizes racing eachother down the taxyway vying for the best pitch!
