Kartoffelsuppe mit Zwetschgenkuchen (Potato Soup and Plum Cake)

I was in the "first" building of SAP...from way back in the 70's. Interesting experience.
People told me that the catering here was better than normal. I was looking forward to exploring what 'better' vegetarian food was instore for me. Among other things, there was Potato Soup and Plum cake. The combination sounded a bit strange to me. Starter and desert together? Potato and Plum together? But it did look very nice. Plus, I had to heed to the curiosity and try it.
On the lunch table, as I tried to find out more about this peculiar combination, I learnt that this was traditional German from Pflaz. (so I learnt)

This definitely gets into my list of favourite German cuisine.
