At that point i would still have been trouble eating, so either the lamb stew or meatloaf.... I had alot of trouble with fish early on, even though it sounds like it would be easy to eat.

Yum.  I'd get the salmon and rock shrimp cake appetizer.

If it's me, I would probably have a protein shake before I went, and stick to the whitefish entree.

My first choice would be the lamb stew. After that, my next choice would be either the molasses-crusted salmon or the whitefish.

My mother was Bavarian, so I know how heavy and rich German food can be. If you want to try something traditional, maybe the sauerbraten (if you can eat beef yet) and ask them to hold the gravy. Have a side salad and ignore the potatoes or let your husband have them. The whitefish looks like the safest choice.

Guten Apetit! But not too good.

The Berghoff!  I haven't been there for YEARS but would love to go again.  I'm with mmsmom--lamb stew or meatloaf. 

I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever you get.

early out I would have gone for the salmon and rock shrimp cake appetizer.  Yum.

If I had a bit more appetite, there are several meat dishes like the turkey meatballs, that also sound delicious.

Have a nice evening!

At 2 months out, I would have ordered soup. If I were feeling adventurous, i'd order the stuffed mushroom appy.

I love stuffed mushrooms :)
