FOOD CULTURE

When German food culture is mentioned, cakes, potatoes, and of course beer come to mind first. In this culture, which has a wide variety of meat and vegetables, there is also a great variety of beer and wine. 

French cuisine, whose roots go back to the Middle Ages, has a rich culture. French cuisine, famous worldwide for its renowned wines and many kinds of cheeses, is known for meat dishes cooked with different sauces and famous desserts such as crème brûlée, macaron, and soufflé. 

Belgian cuisine combines the traditions of German and French cuisines. 

Although Dutch cuisine is not very rich, its cheeses are worth trying. The other flavors are generally fast-food style.
