On the other side of Bay Bridge, Gaumenkitzel proudly waves the flag for German cuisine, with a thick menu brimming with classics. Despite its large size, the restaurant is permanently packed, and for a good reason—its food feels both homemade and gourmet. Standouts include soft spaetzle (a form of pasta served with either cheese or meat sauce), a rich charcuterie board and the Black Forrest cake, (a combo of cherries and chocolate that somehow always fits right into your schedule).
