We are here today with the participants of our diesjährige Easy German Summer School
And we'll go out on the street together and find out,
The people went to lunch today.
And what a typical German Midday meal looks like.
Let's go!
Have you been to lunch today?
I have a Vietnamese lunch today.
Und zwar Hühnchen im Bock. This is the first time I've seen you.
Is that what you usually do, Vietnamese, every lunch?
I'm not always at lunch, I'm usually at home.
Or I'll be in the canteen.
Today I have currywurst zum Mittag gegessen.
So, are you usually currywurst for lunch or something else?
Actually, it was different.
I have Tortelloni gegessen with Gemüsebrühe today.
Is this a typical lunch for you?
This is an Essen, that goes very fast.
And if I have little time, then I'll do it gladly.
I have nothing to eat at noon, because I'm at war.
Oh, all right.
The Court of Justice of the European Communities
I'm not going to.
Is that typical for you, nothing to eat or just a little to eat?
Yeah, actually already.
Yeah, I would say that too.
I went to McDonald's and ate a burger and fries.
And what was a typical lunch for you?
Either a Brötchen or a Vorgekochte Nudeln.
And black vegetable curry.
Okay, that sounds interesting.
Is that typical for you, Indian lunch?
- I know.
That's really complicated.
So Chia-Samen, who overnight were almost so engeleged in so Pudding,
The dead then so upgegen sind.
And then with peanut butter and chocolate roast.
And I think some kind of Himbeer-Syrup or something.
Wow, interesting. did you make that yourself?
No, no, the gab is yesterday.
Nudeln mit Tomatensauce und Gemüse. This is the first time I've had a noodle.
Was that for Gemüse?
I think the war is over.
And is it a typical lunch for you?
No, not at all.
Were you there normally?
Usually only one schmierte stulle.
Was that on the schmierte stool?
Bread is usually with Butter und Käse or vegetarian Aufstrich.
I didn't have any lunch yet, but I had some breakfast.
Okay, and where did you go to breakfast today?
I've had a white one, coconut yogurt with pecan nut and mango.
Okay, that sounds delicious.
Yeah, and usually isst du Mittag, etwas zu Mittag?
No, I eat in the morning and evening.
Okay, why?
I work nights and I don't get up until ten or eleven.
And therefore there is no more lunch with me, only breakfast.
I had a lasagna lunch today, right here at the restaurant.
It's not delicious.
No, normally I eat a little healthier and make myself a salad at home.
Or try to make sure I get enough vitamin.
Oh, nothing, I didn't eat anything today.
Also, I usually eat nothing during the week and I cook but for Sunday for my whole family.
And we sit every Sunday at the kitchen table and eat together at midday.
I have soup and bread and vegetables.
Wow, is that typical for you?
Yes, that's what I brought home.
Oh, I haven't even gotten anything to eat in the afternoon.
I'm actually from Essen today with the train here and have so far only eaten a piece of cake.
And is that typical for you?
No, actually I'm not, I'm also not a night owl.
I need to think about it.
No, I'm usually very late.
Also my first meal I usually take at 15h, 16h.
Ah, so.
And today had to be earlier, because I had to move with the Fahrrad.
I'm going to get a pizza.
Is that typical for you?
Was that a typical lunch for you?
Oh God, that's quite different.
Sometimes I'm ready to go home.
Sometimes I take it on my hand to go, and I'm very, very flexible.

It's fantastic.

And would you say that lunch is your main meal?
Or how important is the lunch for you?
I don't do well without lunch, but usually not much on the Teller at noon.
Are you more than a night?
And how important is the lunch for you compared to other meals of the day?
I'm not eating at all, I'm trying to survive and I'm not dreaming every day.
I fast a lot, very much.
Yeah, and why?
Yes, because I think that by fasting the Self-Healing powers are activated.
Yeah, and is that difficult, much too fast?
I'm already starting, but I'm used to it, I like to fast, because it makes you feel good.
The senses are strengthened, I can see better, hear better, smell better.
Ah, I should try then.
I recommend it to everyone, yes.
Also I find a warm meal am Tag already very important.
But who cares?
Also egal zu welcher Zeit? What is it?
I also like warm evenings.
Oh, I would say, that's the most important.
This is the time of day, when one can once turn off, tell friends.
Yeah, without lunch it doesn't go so well in the evening.
How exactly?
Also for me, the lunch is very important, because in the morning I can't eat so generously.
And the hunger comes then only so gegen Mittag and then there is real much auf dem Kassierer.
That's important, because I need the most power for lunch.
And then that was me and then that's for the rest of the day too good and then at night just no little thing or so.
Is this the most important point of the day?
This is the most important point of the day.
For the evening feast, for the afternoon feast.
I actually find every mealtime very important.
Also, otherwise I function, in my opinion, for myself I do not function over the day,
I've been in the various departments regularly.
I have to take my bath regularly, at certain intervals, otherwise I don't work.
Also it is for me every mealtime very important.
If I work already, because otherwise I get very hungry, because then I so early only a bit breakfast.
Also when I work, it's important for me in the week.
Not so much.
If I have free will, it's not so important.
It's very important to me.
I'm also more someone who likes to eat.
Also I for example is not so much Abendbrot, but then rather zum Mittag.
And what did you say?
Yeah, it's exactly the opposite.
I also don't like lunch, but I like dinner.
I think a healthy breakfast is the most important thing.
Exactly, because I can always start the day off right when I have all the nutrients.
Und zum Mittag was always so was Leichtes.
The evening meal is the most important thing for me.
And why?
Yeah, because it's the end of the day.
I can relax, I can enjoy, I can eat and then rest.
And that's good.
Welsh Art von Mittagessen is popular in Germany?
That's a good question.
I think, eating a lot of people's meals was very easy.
Einen Schnellen Salat to go.
You can choose different tops.
I think that's the most, was every power.
German for?
Gutbürgerliche Küche, I would say.
Also Braten, Kartoffeln, Gemüse, Blumenkohl, Rotkohl, Weißkohl, one of the most beautiful sauces in the world.
That is gutbürgerlich.
Also typical German would be, yes, I think, Braten, Sauerkraut, Knödel, but that I don't like so much.
Also a richer German Mittagstisch are Rouladen natürlich und Klöster.
I think it's some kind of potato dish.
I also believe, either Potato Kartoffelbrei or so, Bratkartoffeln or so.
Yes, I believe that.
That's hard to say.
The Sitten have changed so much.
I know some, who are also more my generation,
The food is very much like classic German Sülze oder Eisbein oder eine Bratwurst oder dergleichen.
But there are already many, who eat more Italian or Persian or Japanese for lunch.
I come from Bavaria and there is a man named Knödel, I would say, with a blue crown.
But for me vegetarian, so that somehow something like Seitan or so comes to that.
Popular in Germany.
I would say Döner.
Yes, in any case.
So in Berlin on any case Doner.
Yes, very popular.
I would say in Germany Döner is in any case very important.
I don't know, Wiener Schnitzel, Neapolitan pizza. I'm not sure what you mean.
Welsh Art von Mittagessen is popular in Germany, would you say?
Oh, I find that kind of difficult.
I also think that's very mixed.
That depends on how old the people are.
Older people, who then also eat punctually at 12 o'clock or 1 o'clock in the afternoon,
Then maybe you'll die of your usual essence, Eintöpfe.
Also that's really but now Klischee.
And the younger ones, they're a little more modern, I think, they eat vegetarian.
Or more vegetables, salad, sowas, yeah.
That can't be said.
Especially in a city like Berlin, where so many people live,
They may have their homes elsewhere, not in Germany.
And we are now so international, that it is no longer,
Can't say no more, German man.
I wouldn't say that.
Randy, how was it for you today, the people on the street to interview?
I found it interesting.
In Berlin zum Mittagessen there were many different Arten von Essen, which had the gegessen.
That's right, there were many different courts involved.
