When in the Poconos and craving a hefeweizen or sauerbraten, head over to this Old World restaurant where the waitresses wear tight- fitting dirndls, the Austrian apple strudel is hot, and the schnitzel is prepared three different ways -- wiener, jaeger or paprika rahm. Steaks and seafood cooked 'American style" are also available for those still frightened by the near-calamitous end of Hansel and Gretel. When traveling during Labor Day weekend, don't miss the annual Oktoberfest celebration for beer, bratwurst, beer, nightly live music and more beer. A little shop next to the restaurant sells cuckoo clocks, beer steins, and nutcrackers, fundamental for fooling your friends and family into believing you spent a weekend in Deutschland. --Kristen Fulton
