Our taste buds are amazing, aren’t they? They have this awe-inspiring ability to transport us to different times, perhaps our grandma’s house when we were kids, and places. A bite of a freshly baked loaf of bread can whisk us straight to the bustling streets of Paris, for example. If you’re craving a taste of Europe, head over to this old-fashioned German restaurant in St. Joseph, Missouri.
Stroll across the threshold and into The Cabbage Roll, an old-school German restaurant in St. Joseph, and you might swear you’ve been teleported to a small German village.
If you’re expecting a modern experience where the décor is shiny and new, you’ve come to the wrong place. This family-owned restaurant exudes Old World charm, with knick-knacks and tablecloths from yesteryear creating a warm ambiance.
Diners, in fact, rave about this St. Joseph restaurant and the friendly service that makes them feel right at home, comparing it to those long-gone meals at grandma’s home.
While the dining room is small, you won’t mind, especially once you sink your teeth into the homemade, authentic German cuisine. You now have the delicious dilemma of deciding what to order.
If you thought choosing the entrée was tough, wait until you see the sides. Dig into such German classics as hot German potato salad, American potato salad, or my favorite, the sweet and sour red cabbage.
The menu also features a few traditional sandwiches – Polish sausage, bratwurst, and meatloaf. Add a side – sauerkraut or German fried potatoes – or two to create the perfect meal.
The Cabbage Roll, which is typically open weekday afternoons, also features weekly specials that may include such favorites as cabbage roll sandwiches, biscuits and gravy, and ham and cheese quiche.
