Das perfekte Dinner’ Opens Potsdam Week With East German Classics and an Egg-Peeling Snafu

Attention now turns to the rest of the Potsdam week on VOX.

Overview

  • Sassi’s episode, which aired Monday at 7 p.m. on VOX, launched the Potsdam run with a nostalgia theme built on reworked East German comfort food.
  • Her menu featured duck ragout to start, panko-crusted eggs on truffle mustard sauce with potato puree for the main course, and quarkkeulchen with lemon curd for dessert.
  • A peeling problem with roughly 15 hard-boiled eggs forced a change of plan as Sassi asked guests to peel their own eggs at the table.
  • Coverage also noted an unusually long pause between the first two courses, with one outlet reporting about a two-hour wait.
  • Reactions at the table mixed praise with critiques such as dry duck and firm egg centers, and Sassi finished the night with 30 points; the week’s episodes are also available to stream on RTL+.
