Eating Spätzle without anything is like eating dry spaghetti. Nobody over the age of 3 would ever do that. There are so many nice options. Gravy or mushroom sauce. Or cheese with fried onions

I agree with the outcome, that bolognese is the best. But damn, as a European, this was a hard watch. Is this how Asians feel when we butcher their food? 😬
