Cafe Berlin
German cuisine took root in Huntsville, Alabama, when German rocket scientists located here during World War II, and the Cafe Berlin is the high-end fine dining choice. The restaurant, with its German decor inside, doesn't look like much outside - just another strip-mall store front. But the food, which ranges from standard German dishes to delicacies, makes up for it. Among the choices: schnitzels, wursts, veal and pork dishes. But the restaurant also offers herring, escargot and liver pudding.
