Our schnitzel options
The original schnitzel
A slice of meat, pounded until thin then fried with a crispy breadcrumb coating. It isn't clear where or when the "original schnitzel" was first created. But all sorts of legends surround it. For example, in 1514 the Council of Venice banned the gold plating of food, which had previously been an accepted way for individuals in certain circles to demonstrate their wealth. Instead, cooks sought inspiration from the Spaniards and Moors and used a gold-coloured breadcrumb coating. Another myth is that Field Marshal Radetzky introduced the schnitzel to the Viennese Court from Milan in 1857. In fact, the practice of coating food in breadcrumbs before frying it goes back well before this in Viennese cuisine. At any rate, the success story of the Austrian Viennese schnitzel began in the second half of the 19th century, and we still regard this as the "original schnitzel" today.
Milanese style schnitzel
"Piccata Milanese" is a veal cutlet with a parmesan, egg and flour coating. It is traditionally served with spaghetti and tomato sauce. The first Italian holidaymakers brought this recipe to Germany in the early 1960s.

Landuro pork
An original recipe from Thuringia: Landuro pork combines the best features of French Duroc and German Edelschwein pork. The animals are fed an exclusively vegetarian diet and are known for the exquisite quality of their meat.

Kikok chicken
The word Kikok is derived from "Kikeriki" — which is German for cock-a-doodle-doo — and "coq". What sounds like a pun actually refers to a gourmet variety of chicken: fed with copious quantities of corn and not reared for rapid growth. The result is the kind of high-quality chicken that is hard to find these days!
