You must try Swabian cuisine while you are in Stuttgart. For a proper introduction, head to restaurant Ackerbürger, in a beautiful, old, half-timbered house in Bad Cannstatt. You must book days in advance for a table in this charming, but slightly narrow place. The quality of the food is amazing. To start, diners are served bread, homemade cream cheese and delicious lard. For the main dish, try the lamb, ratatouille and potatoes au gratin. If you like to try a Swabian specialty, order the roast with onions and Spätzle (Swabian pasta) or the Maultaschen (Swabian tortellini). A good carb-free alternative is the salad with slices of beef. For dessert, try the plum dumplings with ice cream. The wine list includes wines from Stuttgart and the region.
