- Let's do a German Christmas market food challenge! We take 30€ to the Hannover Christmas market to see how expensive it is and how much German Christmas market food we can eat! Is 30€ enough for a German Christmas market budget?

Great work! I really enjoyed your videos!! Cheers from Slovenia 🎉!
Thank you so much!!
Wowww
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Those prices are lower than in the Krakow, Poland x-mass market xD
Wow! Krakow is a bigger city than Hannover though. We'd love to get to Krakow some day, even if it's a bit pricier.
Hey ihr beiden! Für euren "privaten content" besucht die kleinen Märkte in den verschiedenen Stadtteilen. Ich mag zb den auf der Lister Meile sehr gern. Beste Grüße!

Süße Topfenknödel are sweet quark (farmers' cheese) dumplings.
Thank you! We had never seen them before so wanted to try them!
Since last year, Berlin has an all-you-can-eat flatrate christmas Marjet that is all about the typical food with also vegan options.
@@arnikakiani8014 Wow! That sounds great, especially if you go with a big appetite. Next time we’re in Berlin for Christmas we’ll have to check it out! How much does it cost to enter?
@@MYTravelBF It depends on when you enter - the cheapest is 29.90 € at 8pm om a Monday or Tuesday. It´s called "Weihnachten an der Spree" and they have a website. I think it´s only possible to buy tickets online, no tickets at the door.
@ Cool! Thanks so much for sharing!
@@MYTravelBF You are very welcome :)
I actually just tried to send you an email with some Christmas Market activity tips but your inbox appears to be full :)
I'm surprised to see "Topfenknödel" appear on one of the menus in North German Hannover. "Topfen" is a word Austrians use for the German "Quark" I believe Germans aren't too familiar with (except for those vacationing in Austria regularly). These delicious dumplings are, especially when filled with fruits like plums or peaches, my most favorite go-to items
Fascinating! We’ve never seen them before, so we thought why not give it a go!
As one of the few Germans who hate Christmas markets, I'm surprised at how affordable they still are.
So many people say that Christmas markets in Germany have gotten more expensive over the years. They don't seem ridiculously expensive in our opinion! Thanks as always for watching and commenting!
Many of the large Christmas markets are run by the company Käthe Wohlfahrt; this might contribute to price continuity across different cities, yet €4.50 for Glühwein in Leipzig. But people drink 2-3 Glühwein and have kids along who make eyes at the treats, and a €30 Euro budget is gone very fast. Käthe Wohlfahrt might know this. 😅
That makes total sense. It's all a business in the end, especially if they're owned by one business. Luckily, 30€ seemed to go a long way for us!
@@MYTravelBF It sounds like you have good self-discipline. I remember one year at the Christmas market in Leipzig when I spent over €30 for 2 Glühwein and what felt like only a little bit of food; I was still hungry.
@ We’ve had nights like that😅 This time we went with only 30€ because people voted and said that’s what they’d expect to spend, so we had to prioritize our budget.
I highly doubt the markets are “run” by KW, just because their annoyingly expensive stuff is everywhere. Tourists love it, though, although surely the best (and most atmospheric place) to shop for KW is Rothenburg o.d.T.
My favorite market this year is Ulm, hands down. Best selection of food and drinks, as well as most original variety of gift stalls. No idea how far you’d get on 30 euro, though.
Granted, it depends on what the verb "run" means. When the products of a company are prolific in numerous Christmas Markets, one wonders where local variety is found. All of this is my own experience, and I've read several (German) sources commenting on the high price of food and products at Christmas markets this year.
Vegan bratwurst is never going to be any good.
We don’t often see vegan options and Becca is vegetarian, so we thought why not try it out. Plus, it fit into the 30€ budget better than some other more expensive options at the Christmas market
@@MYTravelBF If Becca is vegetarian she could also try out the baked sheep's cheese. They were a longtime favourite of me. Flatbread, salad and some baked sheep's cheese make me wonderfully full. I never needed a Bratwurst. Of course, I also like the Hanf-Fladen on the Middle Ages part of the Christmas market. Not sure if they are there this year, but they were there many years, so I just hope they still are. I think there are vegetarian options with those, too.
@@MYTravelBFUlm has a great selection of veg-friendly foods. And in Stuttgart, you can get a well done vegan currywurst. Now, if only they’d learn to cut the sausage into reasonable pieces…
