Join us for a month of Celebration!
German Specialty Month
Chef Martin Woesle was born and raised in Southern Germany. Some of his first cooking inspirations came from spending time helping his mother in their German family kitchen.
Germany is a country with many differences in cuisine. German cooking of today is much more regional-based, light kitchen style or Grande Cuisine.
Oktoberfest is an annual festival held in Munich, Germany. It lasts two weeks, draws 6 million visitors from all over the world and ends at the first Sunday in October.
The festival originated as a Horse Race celebrating the marriage of the Crown Prince of Bavaria on October 12, 1810. A year later, the races were combined with a state agricultural fair, and by 1818 booths serving food and drink were introduced.
In 1420, German Beer was made by bottom fermentation process. Brewing was a winter occupation, and ice was used to cool beer in the summer months. Such beer came to be called Lager from the German “lagern”, to store.
