lokal Kultur

I was taken out for a taste of Saarlandisch culture by a couple of friends on Valentine's Day. Michael made traditional Dibbelabbes, which he claimed involved a day of shredding potatoes. Sabine and I chose the dinner music from his vast cd library - Koyaanisqatsi was a perfect accompaniment to the hearty homemade fare and Michael's description of seeing this film at the Volklingen Hütte World Heritage Site.
Following dinner, we popped downtown to a tiny side room of a tiny pub to see German folk music live. This trio delighted a packed room with funny and sad songs from the Middle Ages to the mid-20th century. Click on the pic to hear a few of their songs!
Good night - Ich bin sat. (I'm full.)
