Does anyone know if it's acceptable to ask for a doggie bag at a German restaurant? Sometime I just can't make it through a big meal at one sitting.

Hi Shannon, Sorry for late reply. Yes it is acceptable to take the rest of a meal with you. You could say "Können Sie mir den Rest einpacken?" I hope this helps you and guten Appetit! Paul

Great question Shannon! I wouldn't have thought to ask that until I was sitting at a restaurant staring at half a plate of food!!
