I'm in Germany and people rave about their bread but I live in Mannheim and it's like... Okay? I don't have a bakery here that I like more than the ones in New York (specifically) or France (seemingly anywhere) or Vietnam or Japan.
Maybe it's because I haven't found how to use them properly but there just doesn't seem to be a large amount of diversity. Like I'd expect fresh made hamburger buns, the Bahn mi bread, like a good sub situation, fresh rye bread, idk. Also for a country to have good bread I need to be able to walk into any corner bakery and be satisfied 4/5 times.
The thing with the bread is that there's a lot more variety of it in Germany than elsewhere. In the USA you'll basically only get soft white bread. German-style bread is seldom and you'll need to search for shops that sell that.
Ya, totally. In every place I lived in the US except maybe two a near by bakery that was good and not like attached to Hy-Vee or something was non-existent. And the two places that did have bakeries they specialized in like 3 or 4 things, often selling out before 10 AM. It's nice that I have half a dozen in walking distance here, just not so good to praise the whole country vs my examples.
