Geier’s is THE Place in Sarasota for authentic German specialties
Stopped by Geier’s on my way back from Venice, FL this afternoon. They are located along a busy stretch of South Tamiami Trail and the parking lot is almost always full of cars. They have a big Bavarian following in the area, but you don’t have to be German to appreciate the fine work they are doing here. Geier’s is best known as a butcher shop offering freshly made meats and sausages without the typical preservatives. I brought home 4 bratwurst links (50% veal/50% pork), a pound of homemade sauerkraut, and a freshly baked apple strudel. The strudel, pictured below, didn’t stand a chance.
