Dishes and drinks in Düsseldorf rhenish
A rhenish wisdom is:
“Selver esse mäkt satt!”
Eating it yourself makes full
To eat and drink with pleasure are things that characterizes the düsseldorfer lust for life:
“Mr moss rongkeröm satt whde, sons mäkt dat janze Esse kinne Spass”
We have to get full or its no fun to eat.
And after the meal:
“… dan wähd noch eene drop jeschött”
Then there will be drinking
Because:
“Wat dr Mensch bruucht, dat moss hä hann!”
What a men needs he should have!
That is the reason why we have to list some translations for you to get to know Düsseldorf.
