Fort Wayne is blessed with many excellent restaurants. I think it's part of our German heritage. Fort Wayne was originally settled by German Lutheran and German Catholic families. Since that is my heritage I know that German's enjoy eating, and appreciate good food.
Interestingly, as far as I know there are no real German restaurants in our city now. In fact when I Googled German restaurants the results I got for Fort Wayne were Hall's Gas House (American), Dash In (their menu is soups and salads), JK O'Donnell's Irish Pub and Germanfest. Germanfest truly does have German food, hot dogs, brats, sauerkraut, hot potato salad, apple strudel and good dark beer, also Polka music and wiener dog races, but it is only open for four days each summer.
All of this is to explain why, when I went to lunch with friends today we went to an Asian Fusion restaurant, Nawa. I recommend it if you like Currie, Pad Tai, spring rolls and other Asian delights. I had never eaten there before today, but I will be going back.
As I said in the first paragraph, we are blessed with many excellent restaurants. Being curious, I just Googled to see how many restaurants there are in Fort Wayne. The answer - "There are 13,276 restaurants in the state of Indiana. Since Fort Wayne is Indiana's second largest city a substantial number are there." My wonder spouse and I have about a dozen favorite restaurants - Italian, Mexican, Thai, Chinese, American and others. We may need to expand our horizons.
