Food and Travel
As a frequent business traveller to England and across Europe I am used to deal with British people a lot. The Headquarter of my former company is in London. Being from Germany I am also confronted with the usual stereotypes people have about us. Germans are boring, not funny, blond, only eat Sauerkraut etc. - I take this with humour.
Our friends from England also have some stereotypes to handle such as having stiff upper lip, always talking about the rainy weather and in particular about the awful food.
There's a persistent rumour that spices weren't available in the UK until very recently. Well this stereotype might not be true at all. I got to learn a lot about spicy food being over in England and I must say I love the English food a lot. Some restaurants are really really good. Like this one we had a company event.
