Bambi Schnitzel?

January 5, 2007 by Matt

Bambi Disney CartoonWhat would Thumper think?

I was at a restaurant when the waitress attempted to inform us of the special of the day?

after a few failed attempts at communicating the special…
Waitress: English?
Me: Yes. (hoping for some clarity)
W:(realizing she doesn’t actually know the correct English word)…umm…do you know Bambi?
Me: (baffled and looking at Trish for help) Bambi, who’s Bambi?
Trish: (before the waitress can elaborate) oh! You mean deer?
W: (relieved) Yes…deer. We have Deer Schnitzel today.
Me: (chuckling) ooooooh…Rehschnitzel.
W: (nodding enthusiastically) Yes, Rehschnitzel.

Of course I only know that the German word for Deer is Reh because of a friend of mine with the last name Rehmeyer.

I’m sure the BambiSchnitzel was delicious, though I decided on another entree. And thus concludes yet another adventure in German.
