"Tales of Grandma Käthe's Kitchen” or “Why the Swan is a Duck" could be the subtitle of this family business. Their website reveals the exact meaning, but you are better off asking the endearing host Kerstin Rapp-Schwan in person. Whether at the well-known breakfast buffet, the so-called "Schwanitzel" or at “Grandma Käthe's” lunch—each dish brings with it a taste of home. Currently at four locations in and around Dusseldorf, Schwan restaurants, with their rustic charm and home cookin, provide a familiar atmosphere, with the traditional German dishes such as chicken fricassee, meatloaf and Currywurst making many guests reminisce their childhood.
