Hanover - More Than Just Cookies

Online, December 16, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Hanover's Linden district, filled with workers and students, has blossomed into the latest trendy neighborhood: chic, hip, original and always in motion. The typical life here can now be discovered in a delicious way with eat-the-world's culinary and cultural district tours. The first three-hour tour of Linden kicked off in July 2013 and was only available in German, but it is now offered in English as well. This tour leads culinary adventurers through the district as it presents small owner-operated restaurants of Lower Saxony's capital alongside cultural highlights of this up-and-coming neighborhood. Booking this new tour (as well as others) is possible until one hour before the start time (Fridays and Saturdays at 11:30AM) via http://www.eat-the-world.com/en.html.

A lot of useful inventions that have conquered the world got their start in Hanover: the famous Bahlsenkekse cookies, Pelican pens, not to mention the gramophone and color television. Linden, a lively, diverse district in Lower Saxony's capital, is known for a very special attitude towards life. Elke Freimuth and the eat-the-world team show tourists and natives alike the colorful, off-the-beaten-path way of life in Linden. "The commitment of Linden locals is deeply rooted in the working-class culture. The district is characterized by a culture of participation and engagement. People living in Linden identify with their district, which can be seen through their participation in many clubs, projects, and initiatives as well as in the variety of restaurants and cafйs," explains eat-the-world-founder Elke Freimuth. Those who live here appreciate the diversity of the district, even if dealing with the daily issues of a multi-cultural life is not always easy. Linden offers a hodgepodge of inconsistent architecture: a variety of historic buildings, quaint houses, simple workers' quarters, tenements, beautifully restored work and distinctive eyesores. With colorful and diverse looks, the district's people and their culinary preferences are just as varied.

On the Linden tour you can sample a goat cheese tart from a health food store, as well as a hearty soup made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. The culinary and cultural city tour also features a more traditional cafй with a penchant for mystery. A visit to the Pie King of Hanover is another special treat on eat-the-world's Linden tour. Just as the visitors and inhabitants of Linden are multicultural, so too are the culinary delights; from cheese, soup, pizza, and chocolates to Turkish specialties, every palate can be sated in Linden. One exceptional highlight is the behind-the-scenes view of an Anatolian restaurant with a traditional clay oven. The grilled and braised dishes on clay plates are definitely worth a taste. Also featured on the program are a Portuguese pastelaria and a cafe with a fresh, original flavor.
