Düsseldorf’s culinary soul (German) German Adult
Detailed description
Discover the foodie hotspots of Düsseldorf’s Altstadt (Old Town)! This is a culinary excursion focused on food and drink. Taste your way through local delicacies and marvel at the diverse array of regional produce and international food trends on Carlsplatz square, a traditional food market.
This guided culinary tour combines regional specialities and historical sites. Where did Heinrich Heine experience the allure of “small, sweet-smelling hot apple tarts”? And what would the Altstadt be without Düsseldorf’s legendary mustard shop and its exhibition on the history of mustard going back hundreds of years? Even Vincent van Gogh was a fan of this local delicacy, to the extent that he featured the distinctive ABB stoneware mustard pot in one of his paintings.
There’s more to the Old Town’s culinary diversity than cherished local memories, of course. It also continues to explore new worlds, particularly on Carlsplatz square. Enjoy slow food to take away, sample tasty treats and get the lowdown on what’s hot from market traders and other connoisseurs.
When it comes to food and drink, no tour of Düsseldorf would be complete without some altbier, so join us as we visit a brewpub to learn about the secrets of this distinctive local refreshment.
