One of my favs, <strong>Geschnetzeltes mit Rösti</strong>. <p>This dish has small pieces of meat, (veal, chicken or pork) muchrooms, cream, onions and sherry served over butter rosti; a butter browned hash brown. Thank goodness this dish is not available all the time!</p> Curt, the friendly owner has one of the best wine lists in the state.
