Germany by both area and population .
• Its 3,769,495 inhabitants as of 31

populous city of the European Union,

federal states. It is surrounded by the
state of Brandenburg, and contiguous
with Potsdam, Brandenburg's capital. The
two cities are at the center of the Berlin-
Brandenburg capital region, which is, with
about six million inhabitants and an area
of more than 30,000 km2, Germany's
third-largest metropolitan region after
the Rhine-Ruhr and Rhine-Main regions.
 Famous food of Berlin
Apfelstrudel:
This immensely popular dessert originated in nearby
Austria. Actually, it means ‘apple whirlpool’ in Middle
High German.
A thin pastry jacket is stuffed with tart cooking
apples, cinnamon, sugar, raisins, and bread crumbs. It
only really comes together, though with a dollop of
vanilla ice cream. Yum!
Eisbein:
Pickled ham hock (pork knuckles) is boiled or grilled
and served with boiled potatoes, sauerkraut, and
mustard. 
Bretzels:
Legend has it that pretzels were invented by a monk in
Italy who folded dough into the shape of a child
crossing its arms in prayer. Whatever the history,
this savory bread snack is a favorite accompaniment
to any German Pilsner.

Hamburg
• Hamburg is the second-largest city in
Germany after Berlin and 7th largest city
in the European Union with a population
of over 1.84 million.
• One of Germany's 16 federal states, it is
surrounded by Schleswig-Holstein to the
north and Lower Saxony to the south. The
city's metropolitan region is home to
more than five million people.
• Hamburg lies on the River Elbe and two of
its tributaries, the River Alster and the
River Bille.
 Food of Hamburg
Fischbrötchen:
The humble fish roll is a snack in which its appeal lies
in its simplicity. The sandwich is typically made with
pickled herring (bismarckhering) or soused herring
(matjes), some onion, pickles and remoulade sauce.
The fischbrötchen tastes best if eaten while enjoying
views of the River Elbe’s or the North Sea’s wind in
your face.
Finkenwerder Scholle:
This traditional fish dish is named after a district of
Hamburg that was once a fishing village. Plaice
(scholle) is baked or pan-fried with bacon, onions and
shrimp from the North Sea.
Labskaus:
If you want to sample traditional sailor and seamen
fare, look no further than labskaus. This dish is made
from corned beef, mashed potatoes and onions, with
pickled beetroot, pickled gherkin, herring and fried egg
commonly served as sides.  Admittedly, the labskaus is
anything but a photogenic dish, but dare to dig in, and
your taste buds will thank you.

federal state Free Hanseatic City of
Bremen

Bremen and Bremerhaven.

 Famous foods of
Bremen
Kale and Pinkel:
Bremen loves kale, and it’s a popular ingredient in a wide
range of dishes here. The most common accompaniment to
kale is the pinkelwurst, a smoked sausage made with oatmeal. 
You’ll find this combination offered in restaurants throughout
the city – with many putting their own unique spin on
the dish. 
Labkaus
Bremen also loves its meat – and labkaus is a popular dish for
avid meat-eaters. Containing salted-pork and vegetables,
variations can also feature pickled-herring or fried eggs. It’s
a sturdy meal that is thought to have originated from the
preferences of local sailors and is now dished up in many
traditional cafés.
Aalsuppe
Aalsuppe translates as eel-soup and was a widely-eaten dish in
the past. Eels used to be common in the Weser River, and they
wriggled their way into many-a-local dish. You can still find
eel soup, but it is now served more as curiosity in traditional
restaurants rather than as an everyday dish. Its sheer
uniqueness to Bremen makes it a great dish to try for the
adventurous.
