    Thanks so much, Joe. I appreciate your looking this one up for me. I've got some German friends over here going to the university and they've been homesick for stuff like this. Sounds like the perfect ending to some sauerbraten and kartoffelpuree.

    Oh, I'm so excited! We first ate schmarrn when we were in Vienna a couple years ago, and I've been trying to figure out how to duplicate it. Thank you so much for posting this - I will try it very soon (perhaps this weekend?) and let you know how I did...my husband loved this, as did I. The waiter simply explained it as "torn pancakes"...accurate description, but doesn't tell you how wonderful it tastes! Thanks, Joe ~ Krum

    Oh, joe! This is absolutely divine. A decidedly not-so-wonderful name for a wonderful dish. I can't wait to attempt this in my own kitchen... You have my thanks and my ^5.

    I had to make a couple of minor changes in the recipe to convert it from metric to US measures. I've not made this myself, but this sounds very authentic to me.
