BUONGUSTO Ristorante Off the Hauptmarkt Trier

A beautiful Calamari Grill - A rescuer of a squid

Mihaela and I set out for downtown Trier for day two of our annual “birthday week” yesterday. Having plopped down in nearly every eatery in Germany’s oldest city these last 7 years, finding a new hidden gem was our mission on a perfect summer’s day. Relegated to the side alleys of the pedestrian zone, choosing from off the beaten path seemed logical. So confronted with the typical schnitzel garden, or a classy looking Italian cafe/restaurant, we gave Deutsche cuisine “the boot” on this cheery day.
