Cologne is a 2000 year old city in western Germany spanning the Rhine River. Some things to do in Cologne include visiting the Cologne Cathedral and doing a sightseeing cruise!
Restaurants we visited in Cologne are Bei d'r Tant Kolsch and the second one was supposed to be Bierhaus en d'r Salzgass but outside there is a whole plaza of brewhouses!
German foods to eat in Cologne include:
-Halve Hanh, a famous traditional sandwich. Name is half a rooster but there's no meat!
-Himmel und Erde, fried black pudding with mashed potatoes, apple sauce and onions!
-Mettbrotchen, raw pork sausage meat on bread!
-Kolsch, the beer of Colgone! Must try this beer in Germany :)!

who ever told you that only colongans eat mettbrötchen...it's pretty normal to eat all over germany
MUETZE198 yep
That's right, I was also wondering because I'm from Hesse and it is very common there, too
For swabians it's not - never ate one
Doch
Yes, it's nothing special in whole Germany. With much onion rings, salt and pepper
"The the ice train"... :D sounds a lot cooler than the actual name. (It's I-C-E, letters individually spoken. Stands for Intercity Express)
Love your open minded attempt, to get our vibes in. One of a few auto-suggested videos, that really surprised me in a positive way. Keep up your way of making videos! Greetings from cologne!
Aw thank you so, so much
If you read the Bible, you know church is against all teachings
METTBROETCHHEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNN...........!!!!!!!!! my obsession... i want it nowwww😭😭😭😭😭
+tiggi sun omg I’m so glad you like it!!! Hahah people were like omg raw pork 🙈🙈 it was good though
CupofTJ its really not that bad...its not like they just slap raw meat on there...they do process it, thats why its so salty....to kill germs and such 😄 they like cure the meat 😊 and have to make it fresh daily of course... i would eat it at least once a month...i miss it so much hehe...its my german sushi😂😂😂
Like tiggi sun wrote: It's basically raw meat but not alone. It's a dish based on minced meat flavoured with salt and pepper, nutmeg, aniseed or star anise, majoram, garlic, caraway, onions and/or oregano to the liking. There are recipes with raw egg yolk as well. This is called Thüringer Mett or Hackepeter if it's fresh. Or as Mettwurst (Mett sausage) as raw sausage, often smoked. See also: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mett
In our region is Mett a common dish for cold buffets (traditional formed as a pig or hedgehog = Mettigel) and as snack meal. Mettbrötchen (Mett on a bread roll) is an loved item for breakfast as well. You get Mett in every butchery (and Mettbrötchen in most bakeries) fresh or preserved pre-portioned in supermarkets.
Jochen Damm 😄😄😄👍👍👍
Feel free to come to Cologne :-* Regards
Cologne is a fun city.. especially during carneval..and Mettbrötchen are the best :D
+Amazing Chiang Mai I wanna visit during Christmas for the markets 🙆🏻🙆🏻
Maximilian Hoffman good thing you are not into fearmongering at all.. maybe stop reading the Bild and watching RTL News for a while (or if you are not german, which would make your comment even worse) stop consuming whatever garbage media you currently consume. Clearly not good for you.
I've never been to Germany(and unfortunately won't be able to go , due to homebound), but I can travel thanks to these vids! these are cool and fun vlogs, thanks TJ!!
I literally saw my bff walking in the background when you were sitting in that last restaurant. She lives in this area LUL
You are absolutely amazing. I love your food reviews. You eat that raw pork or blood sausage like a champ!!! Awesome!
Yeah... with beer - everything tastes better...
I feel that 😄
Hey fam! Hope you are enjoying your time in Europe, I just got back from Europe and it was definetly an incredible trip! Great video as always :)
+Carl Manney where did you go!!! So fun
CupofTJ I was in Budapest, Vienna, Prague and Bratislava 😊
Your vlogs are the best TJ! It's obvious you put a lot of care and thought into them which is much appreciated. :)
Doing and enjoying what GOD meant you to do. Being what you were meant to be. And so you exhude the joy. Congratulations on your exciting, informative vlog on Germany 🇩🇪 my beloved 2nd country 😄😊👍
You are literally so cute and you have such a bubbly, fun, and sweet personality. Really good German Food video!
I’m glad you enjoyed Cologne!
It’s not too far from my place ...and I missed you! 😢 but you know what? Someday I’ll meet you somewhere around the world for sure! 😄
But anyways.. glad to see you enjoying more german food! Mett is my favorite. Also, you uploaded it on Mettwoch!👌🏽
I’ve never tried Himmel und Erde yet ..but I’m originally from Frankfurt and not from the Cologne area. (Ok. I’m originally from HK)😁
Sending you good vibes on your travels! Stay safe 😊
Hey Charlie,I am in Cologne too so if you were free at weekends pm me ,I am working in IT department of CCC company ,And I am free at weekends .
Mettbrötchen needs a pinch of salt and black pepper for me. Sooo yummy!
Great vlog! Love that church, so beautiful. Awesome beer in Germany and the food looks great. I Must say...you were too cute trying to open the door @2:36 lol
This cathedral, the dome is the pride of almost every resident. It is mentioned in many local folk songs.
Mett is not necessarily a sausage.
There a different names to grinded pork: Hackepeter, Gehacktes, Mett.
Usually it is just the grinded pork with seasoning and it is not in shape of a sausage. It has to be fresh.
If it is not fresh and it got some procedure to keep it longer it becomes a Mettwurst, the mett sausage. And a Mettwurst can also contain beef.
And there are also curious laws to this. You are not allowed to sell a bun with mett sausage as Gehacktesbrötchen even if it is for the most Germans the same. It had to be called a bun with mett sausage, to make it clear that it is not fresh raw meat. Because for that you need special laws you have to obey. And not all places can follow them.
Lovely entertaining video, nice presentation and shining personality!
every food lover (who isn't vegetarian or vegan) will love the traditional german cusine. It's hearty, filling and really good almost every dish has something to do with pork, or beef and seasonal influences .
the early winter or late autum is the time of Eintopf(basicly stews) and Grünkohl (green kale cooked for hours with a smoked sausage and bacon) then there is the 'Martins gans' a traditional dish served to St Martins day on the 11th of november
the December is full of anticipation for christmas the christmas markets are simply ....christmasy xD all kinds of tasty smells fill the city centre and you can get everthing from Glühwein(glowing wine is spiced hot wine that warm you up after a long day in the cold and tastes the best when drank on site) to christmas presents.
I personally love to eat Reibekuchen(small potato pancakes [if you want to call it that] made from raspled potatos and bacon) with mushed apples.
also a typical german winter dish is Sauerkraut with Kasslerbraten
the winter is filled with hearty food and a lot of stews and roasts.
The spring ... well if you're in the nothern half of germany then there is only one dish that will dominate the cusine. Asparagus there are many different dishes with asparagus ...and tbh I don't like it that much but everyone should at least have tried it once xD
Summer is often the time for soups and light salads(like the southgerman potatoe salad) and not so light salads (like the northgerman potatoe salad) and usually you will notice the sweet smell of bbq filling the gardens it's typical to invite friends and family to sit in the gardens and grill some sausages and steaks while drinking beer and having a good time.
German Fast food (I mean the traditional kind not mc donalds or so) is typical served in 'Imbissbuden' where you can watch the grilled chicken turning (you will understand what I mean if you ever see a german imbissbude) where you can get a grilled chicken or half of it, fries, Currywurst or normal bratwurst(grilled sausage) I would recommend to you orderring a 'mantaplatte' ( a currywurst with fries, mayo and ketchup) also keep an eye out if he imbiss is trying to sell you curryketchup as a curry sauce a real currywurst has a homemade sauce not a cheap ketchup.
be openminded and you will have a great time trying all the tasty stuff xD also kölsch...pls only drink kölsch in cologne it's their regional favorite and other regions have other beer. if you order a kölsch in Düsseldorf it could get emberassing (Cologne and Düsseldorf hate each other) or if you're sitting in the wrong pub even dangerous the Düsseldorfer drinks 'Alt', the frisian 'pilz', the Bavarian 'Weißbier' and the westfalian 'Export'. Every region has it's own beer specialities and everyone is really good
Interesting looking food for sure. They certainly like their cheese over there. You are more game than me to try the black Pudding. Thanks for sharing :)
You're the cutest thing ever! Going to Cologne next week...super excited..thanks for sharing!!
Athena Bozak how was it?
Köln is a beautiful city i had such an awesome time 11 years ago. I think it's about time for a second visit
She speaks very good english in this video.
I'm enjoying this video because Germany is on my Travel wish list ... thank you TJ!
Have you any regions in focus yet? In Germany are so many different ways of life. Even I, a German, can't tell alldifferences in the 16 states. And every state has several regions with different mentalities, cultures and of cause food. For example: There are a 5th season per year. In the Rhineland it is at carneval (Novembre 11th - Ash Wednesday), in Munich is it at the Oktoberfest.
There is no Mett… just german sushi :)
+CamaroMann HAHAHA I LOVE that!!
Yeah you really could say that :D thats true somehow :D not so much an art like sushi, but its good ;)
Greed' s from Germany ,😂🤣😅!!!
......👍✌️
I am in Cologne for master thesis so does some one has a part time Job please ?
I was drooling all over that heaven on earth plate with the black pudding (Great footage with the fork going into the black pudding) and then a couple scenes later I was like D,: Lol!
You speak better English than some of our English!
Love your blog, seems much more personable the Anthony Bourdain types on the travel channel.
You are very brave to eat this food! But you never know till you try! I also love all the info that has been chimed in with the other commenters.
Kudos TJ, blood pudding/black pudding makes many people run a mile. Had it from a young age so quite familiar, also spent a lot of my childhood in Germany and no one does fast food (Schnellimbiss) like Germany. Bratwurst mit pommes und mayo. Sehr gut danke schon.
+Sean H MMM eating some bratwurst with pommes next video!! Hahah that black pudding really was something
Frikadellen (plural) or a Frikadella (singular) is also something you should seek out..
Frikadellen (plural) or a Frikadella (singular) is also something you should seek out..
Welcome to Germany
+Troy Kirchner loooove Germany! Ty!
Next time put a little salt and lots of pepper on the Mettbrötchen...best hangover breakfast i know ;)
OMG my hometown. It's so awesome you've been there and you're so open for everything :)
Morgen ist Mettwoch meine Kerle!!!
jetzt hab ich Hunger... Danke schön
Alles lecker jetzt hab ich Hunger !
Love your introduction, I and my husband will travel to Cologne in May, were looking for food to try.
Hahaha very nice 👍😊😀😀😀😀
Awe! Miss your videos✌and love your white outfit.
Back back in the home office editing now :) AND TY
Halve Hahn - half faucet is a big slice of gouda cheese and a rye bread roll
Uups misstake .. not faucet
Half rooster
Ich liebe Mettbrötchen, mit weißen oder roten Zwiebeln und Salz und Pfeffer ...lecker
Damn, i am REALLY late to your videos.
But i must say, i can easily see why you have a decent amount of followers.
Your videos are nicely done, honest and from a personal, non-biased view.
Some lovely words
Halve Hahn, you eat in the evening, when you have your "Feierabendbier" "end of the workday beer".
The "Bloodpudding" dish, is called "Himmel und Äd" or "Heaven and Soil". The heaven stands for the applesauce, because apple are in the sky and the soil stands for the rest. The bloodsausage and the mushed potoatos.
And "Mettbrötchen" are sooo yummi.
Best Mettbrötchen: White bread roll with "Thüringer Mett"/"Hackepeter" with extra salt, pepper, garlic powder and loads of onion :D. Eaten all over germany. Mettbrötchen is not just eaten in the Cologne area. ;)
+MsTapTingles I️ should’ve added some seasoning!! Oh and good to know for some reason the internet makes it seem only in Cologne, glad to have tried it there though!
Garlic powder????🤮
I'm in love. Can't wait till I move to Germany
Mett - the seasoned raw minced pork - is eaten all over in Germany. It may go by different names. In some parts it's called Hackepeter. The only good and fresh pork is available in butcher's shops. Many of them provide rolls and onions too (some serve chopped, some serve rings) and assemble them to go.
So now in have Lust auf an Mett Brötchen with Zwiebeln 😁😋😋 beschte
Nice view of my hometown 😍👍🏼
14:20 on that bridge there are thousands of locks locked together
I like your video, and I like you!
+Astrofrank Aw shucks thank you 😭
Love your videos!!
Mett is not from a sausage. It's simply raw pork meat. Usually eaten with white onions, salt and pepper. Some may add spring onion, but that's it. It's the first time I see a Mettbrötchen with red (sweet) onions? Never tried it before. I'll try it today.
watt bin ich froh wenn der lockdown zu ende ist. dann geh ich mal wieder richtich fett kölsch essen. und Karneval feiern ^^
i really like the song towards the end
Gr8 video! Also germans get fooled by the "Halve Han" ..lol.. (me included..)
I wonder you liked the rawporkroll !?!? It's also my fav. breakfast just with onions and salt'n pepper.. keep on traveling'N eating
Halve Hahn is just a local saying. Most people think of a delicious grilled bird. I live near by Cologne and learned it after several years of youth.
It actually comes from: "can i have a half one?"
(Kann ich ne' halve Han? )
It's Halve Hahn* in the title, but I'm glad you liked the food!! :) Wish I would have known that you're here, I could have been your food guide.
Such nice Vlogs
Ty ty
Beer and Mettbroetchen, great!
Great job on your vlog. I hope one day soon to get to Germany and try some raw pork sausage which sounds unsafe to eat but you look as though it didn't slow you down one bit.
+Jeff Stickles hahahah I survived 🙆🏻🙆🏻
Try to get fresh "Schinkenmettwurst" from a butcher to get the real raw pork experience :D. Other kinds are often dried or smoked and not as soft. And the packed ones in the supermarket are also not as good. Better supermarkets like Rewe, Edeka and Real usualy have a butcher in their store.
@@TheTerrorHamster "Schinkenmettwurst" isn't Mett. Only Mett is the *real* raw pork experience.
I do love the "Mettbrötchen"! 😊
Lol you should try as a STAND UP COMEDIAN
Hahah thank you Rahul :)
When you feel full try green tea ! it makes the digesting process goes easy
+qassimy thank you ☺️
Cup of TJ your personality is really nice.
Hometown, sweet Hometown
If i wasn't german i would love this country without ever seeing it.
Thank for this wonderful minutes 😚
Whoop!
My City is on YT again! :D
#köllefornia baby :D
"when do we not eat a lot?" hahaha I could tattoo this
Himmel un Äd is life
only thing we put on mettbrötchen (at least in the northern parts) is pepper and... onions... that about it. it doesnt need anything else (onions are optional tho, pepper is where the love is at)
A meal you have missed is "Rheinischer Sauerbraten mit Rotkohl und Kartoffelklöße" (Rhineland sour roast meet wiith potato dumplings and red cabbage. The meat is usually beef; however if it is offered as "Original Rheinischer Sauerbraten" it will be horse.
Gerd Papenburg this dish isnt for everyones taste tbh
TJ! What kind of backpack do you have and where did you buy it? It looks like a really good and sturdy backpack to have. Also, I always have to eat whenever I watch your food videos. It's the only way I can feel like I'm there with you even if I'm not hahaha
When are the Greece vlogs coming? Can’t wait for those
In Cologne, for reasons of cost, a Gauda cheese is being done on Halve han.
In Dusseldorf, according to old tradition, a real "stinker" cheese is made on it
A düsseldorfer gets in cologne no halve han, but a cheese bun
Caraway belongs to a "real halve han".and the hardcore version still has raw onions on top!!!!! ;)
How cute girl, enjoyed😀
German cuisine is uninteresting, but I enjoy watching you!
Hello TJ beautiful place Cologne is the idea for the train is great have a wonderful time Take Care Dear
beer , then bread with super big size cheese n onion .... that really looks full already to me :P ....lol
~9:25 "1 Alster 0,2l" This won't be a tipsy episode. :D
HELLO KITTY
Sounds like the name of an adult movie ! Love it
First class .... oooh fancy !
OMG LOL didn't think of that...and now it can't be unthink hahahah
thanks for the tips for our channel, we've taken what you said on board, putting ourselves in thumbnails etc. Thanks so much for taking the time out to look at our channel. It means so much to have you watched it. Loving your european videos, but very excited to see you back in Asia!
That sausage/chopped onion bread think looked good.
Great video, I love how openminded you are!
Would have been so nice to say hello to you..as i was there at almost the same time.
Your so cute tj... :) have a good one.
+Gerard Greg thanks fam 🙆🏻
Great vlog amiga " Come to South Florida " and stay with me so I can show you around :) #cheers
+Siggy Rocks Aww that’d be amazing 😭
Brave girl. I would never eat that blood sausage and Mettbrötchen. And I am german. Btw. the bill said that the beer was half lemonade (Alster).
Hahah thank you! Omg did it really? Did they lace my beer with lemonade!? How dare they.
@@CupofTJ They did and the term Alster refers to the river in Hamburg. It is also called Radler.
Moreover, it is highly disputed outsided Cologne that "Kölsch" should be even considered beer,
especially by their archenemies in the neighbour city Düsseldorf.
Is it the weekend yet? Sending good vibes and food to you all!
Watch more Germany vlogs here 🙆🏻: goo.gl/gi2S6o 🙆🏻
If you come to Sydney, I can show you around :)
oh the mettbrötchen is in the Gilden im Zims, the best Porc Knuckle
Mettbrötchen geht immer. Und jetzt hab' ich hunger. Hab' zwar kein Mett, aber Brötchen. Darauf Leberwurst oder Räucherlachs.
The Redbrown soussag ist Blood soussag ( Blutwurst)
That pudding is Pig blood mixed with something else and than baked. If you ever go to Czech republic or Slovakia ask for Hurka or Krvavnichka. It is blood sausage,
Your hostel staff member lied to you people from out of Cologne eat Mettbrötchen as well, like I'm from Hamburg and even though I didn't grow up with those traditions (I mean Cologne style tradition) I know Mettbrötchen too and all my friends are eating them. It's kinda my obsession.
REALLY? YAY that's good to hear :D I actually really enjoyed it and thought it was yummy hahah
As far as I know it's eaten everywhere in Germany. We mostly got both fresh from the butcher and the bakery on sunday mornings then I was a kid.
Black pudding reminds me of our very own betamax and dinuguan. It really surprises me that many of their food there are somewhat the same as ours, here in PH 😍
You drank a beer before 4pm. It's a basic rule to not drink before "Feierabend" (end of worktime). So if you drink a beer too early during the day people might give you weird stares ^^
+Apfelschorle Deluxe omg HAHAH I️ am a weirdo 😂😂 this why I️ need a local!!
CupofTJ well, you were a tourist in a touristy area. I don't think anyone minded 😄
Apfelschorle Deluxe In Bavaria we have beer for breakfast, what are you talking about? :D
Crustina Aguilera she is in cologne. Not in bavaria. Kein Bier vor 4. Wer vormittags trinkt wird schonmal beäugt im Rheinland. Was ihr Bayern da in eurem Land tut ist was andres, lernt erstmal deutsch.xD
In Cologne and Munich it's common to have a beer for lunch.
It kills me that you like Mettbrötchen!! Yay!
cologne kathedral even was the tallest building in the world. not only churches
Best City ;)
its too late for Applewine but when you will see one of the perls from germany ... visit Wiesbaden :) (many Hollywood stars live(d) here or have houses here... Mickey Rourke and Debby Ryan btw ;) ) Wiesbaden is a old City from the Roman Imperium (we have the Römer Tor and many Hot Springs from this age... and at the 8. November is here a Wine Fest :D ( too much Alkohol :D ) i think Wiesbaden is one of the Citys that nobody knows that... and from here comes you light to Frankfurt(39km) and Mainz(16km) :D oh and the Castles here are nice... (Biebricher Schloss und Schlosspark, Jagtschloss Plate, Freudenberger Jagtschloss) and we have a Animal Park( its a Zoo but they have only Animals that lives here in Germany .. Now and past)... its not the biggest city and not the coolest but its very nice here :)
is this girl ever relaxed and calm ? no hate // love ya
