In Bavaria, there are fixed rules for eating Weißwürste (white veal sausages); a true Bavarian would not eat them after the church bell rings at 12 noon. These rules are not suspended during the Wiesn.

7 / 11Considered a classic vegetarian alternative dish in many festival tents: cheese spaetzle with a fine roasted onion topping. „Käsespätzle“ consist of soft egg noodles called „spätzle“ that are mixed with grated cheese, usually Emmental or Gruyère, and fried onions. The spätzle are boiled until tender, then layered with cheese and onions in a casserole dish. The dish is often baked or broiled until the cheese is melted and bubbly, creating a flavorful and comforting dish. © Bernd Jürgens/IMAGO
