The most popular German Restaurant in Bradenton is Simone and Chef Uwe Kaufer's 'Lucky Frog', who have been serving authentic German cuisine to Floridians since opening in 2014. With every dish made from scratch using old family recipes, the couples restaurant was named after "The Lion and the Frog" by Brothers Grimm, which is a story about a frog who encourages a sad princess to slay a lion so see can see her brother once again. At the end, the lion transforms into the lost brother and the frog is actually a beautiful princess so everyone celebrates with a big wedding and lots of German food. Accordingly, the dishes on the menu are all named after the fairy tale. There's The Golden Palace, a Vienna-style schnitzel with German potato salad, The Frog's Wedding with roast pork, sauerkraut and dumplings, and also The Queens Heart, sauerbraten with red cabbage and homemade spaetzle. Arriving for lunch with our friends Diane and Ric - whose parents were German - he was more than happy, as we all were, to find authentic Potato Pancakes, Schnitzel and German beer in Florida. Prost!
