Note: This recipe is part of a series of classic Acquired Tastes from the C-VILLE archives. This one first ran in 2003. Sure, it would be fun to be jet off to Munich, but it’s a heck of a lot easier to hop in your car and jet up Route 29 to the Bavarian Chef […]

Even if they aren’t always followed, New Year’s resolutions are a ritual for many of us.
