- kassler ripschen (smoked pork chop)
- eisben mit sauerkraut (pork hocks with sauerkraut)
- leberkaese (German veal loaf)
- knackwurst (German garlic sausage)
- bratwurst (mild white veal sausage)
- sauerkraut, red cabbage, and german potato salad
And what Oktoberfest would be complete without some authentic beers:
- Bitburger Pilsener (the #1 draft beer in Germany)
- Hofbrauhaus Hefeweizen Beer
- Hofbrauhaus Oktoberfest Beer
We will also offer a wurstsalat salad and housemade apple strudel with Sisler's french vanilla ice cream.
Supplies are definitely limited. Stop out and sample our German fare after 4 pm each night, beginning Sunday, September 22. You've got a week (maybe more) to try out this authentic German plate. So come in early, and come often - before it's gone!
A bit more background on this special food event:
Oktoberfest is known as the largest beer festival in the world. Dating back to Munich, Germany on October 12th, 1810, the 5-day event was originally staged to celebrate the marriage of the Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxony Hildburghausen.
Though the official fest in Germany boasts more than 6 million visitors a year who help consume more than 1 million gallons of beer, we at the Uptown are proud to bring a slice of German history and festivities to the Illinois Valley.
