The German Tuscany, as the Palatinate is often called, entices with its pines and cypresses, fig trees, and almond blossoms - authentically German yet Mediterranean, cosmopolitan yet provincial at the same time. The cabaret artist Christian "Chako" Habekost provides insights into the clichés of this southwestern German region, pokes fun at the Palatinate's penchant for superlatives, and delves into the nuances of the dialect - the "schännschde" vernacular of all. It's an entertaining journey from the vegetable-rich Palatinate to the German Wine Route, from the cathedral in Speyer to the largest wine festival in the world, and over to the Kurpfalz in Mannheim and Heidelberg. He explains how musical hand cheese really is, how many glasses of wine a typical Palatinate resident "petzt" daily, and reveals how Helmut Kohl preferred his Saumagen. A humorous yet profound excursion into a lively region, full of character.
