After a fantastic Chicken Fried Steak at Mia's Table last Sunday, I'm enticed into looking for more options around town. The query result shows a German restaurant in Missouri City that has patio seating, so we decided to go and learn about this unfamiliar cuisine.
The staffs are friendly and helpful. Instead of the comforting CFS that we have all the time, I rather try their top Entree item, Pork Schnitzel. The flawlessly breaded and fried pork cutlet with cream mushroom gravy took me by surprise on my first bite, "this is freaking delicious!" After a few more bites, I experiment by squeezing the grilled lemon on the Schnitzel which I find enhances the flavor.
The pleasant surprises continue to deliver. My first time trying the German Potato Salad that's served warm that has a slight sourness and I love it, especially when I get to the parts that have bacon pieces mixed into it.
I'm so glad I pick the Stewed Red Cabbage as the second side because it has so many ingredients that go into the seasoning, and I love the subtle sweetness and interesting flavors that come with each bite. I never know how good Stewed Red Cabbage is, it's like the Soul Food of the Deutsch.
We also get an extra side of the San Saba Salad, a delightful Hill Country-style Salad, which is where the owners and chef are from. The mixed greens, Granny Smith apples, pecans, fried wonton strips, and blue cheese, work exceptionally well together with the Rosemary Vinaigrette, creating complex flavor and interesting textures. I can taste a hint of ginger that I like very much. The San Saba Salad is seriously tasty and refreshing. I didn't grow up eating cheese at all but I love Blue Cheese, especially when it's eaten with sour Green Apple slices and earthly Pecan pieces in this salad.
The Beef Sliders are made with quality ingredients, ) Angus / Brisket blend burgers served with beer onions, and American cheese, on a Slow Dough roll. It's not overly seasoned, so you can adjust the saltiness to your liking.
Such a wonderfully delicious German meal that's also great value too! I'm looking forward to coming back and trying so many other menu items, like their CFS, Sausages, Burgers, and Fries. I'm happy to learn that I like German food.
