The best way to eat is actually to go with a group of people to Alsace and order yourself through the menu, trying every type there is before closing with the sweet one.
But first make sure who will drive back first as there will be lots of wine. ;-)

I think this about what you are looking for:

Flammkuchen is actually more Alsace/France than Baden/Germany but you get everywhere in that South-West border region.
This is the basic classic type, there are numerous variations including sweet ones with apples and cinnamon on pure creme fraiche (often flambéed with Calvados) a good vegetarian one is with (fresh) mushrooms and chives.
Garlic and /or cheese is often added too.
