Silke and Michael Hentschel, are the proprietors of Haus Falkenstein an Edmonton restaurant that holds the Guinness World Record for the largest number of commercially available schnitzel varieties.
The specialty restaurant offers 347 different permutations of fresh, pan-fried and breaded pork. In an effort not to overwhelm diners with a seven-page menu, they display only 67 of the most popular versions but the others are always available, says chef Michael.
Adding to the charm of Haus Falkenstein, 15215 111 Ave., is a hall-of-fame devoted to the German soccer team, FC Schalke 04, and a collection of antique Alberta licence plates, plus an assortment of lederhosen and dirndl skirts, adorn the walls of the 71-seat restaurant.
