Crisp autumn days with the delicious scent of German bratwurst, wiener schnitzel and chocolate cake wafting through the streets, people stopping at local restaurants to enjoy tasty, old-world recipes and conversation. This is what Cullman’s Oktoberfest promises to bring this week – specially prepared cuisine from the exotic to the everyday dish – all with a distinct German taste and style. The All Steak and CRMC, as well as several other local restaurants, will be featuring a German menu. Some are one-day special events, others can be ordered during Oktoberfest week. For over 30 years, Sacred Heart has offered a traditional German dinner which consists of bratwurst, country style kraut, German potato salad, apple sauce, green beans and a dessert. The women of the Alta Society at Sacred Heart of Jesus Church do most of the preparations, including peeling bushels of potatoes for the potato salad recipe. For 13 years, St. John’s Evangelical Protestant Church has been offering German recipes including wiener schnitzel and apfelkugel (apple cake) and brotchen (bread). The 2007 Burgermeister, Pete Misegades, is the chief chef for their meal. During Oktoberfest week the following restaurants will be offering German meals: Daily lunches will be available at The Dog House, Rumor’s Deli, Festhalle Market Platz and evening dinners at Festhalle Market Platz (prepared by the Boy Scouts). Monday, October 1, the Roadhouse Barbecue will have a German dinner between 4:30–7:30 p.m. Tuesday, October 2, there will be a German Dinner Buffet at Cullman Medical Regional Center in the Colonel Cullman Room from 5:30–7:30 p.m. Wednesday, October 3, there will be a German lunch at Terri Pines Country Club, reservations only, between the hours of 11:30–1:30 p.m. Wednesday night, October 4, Sacred Heart Church will host their annual German dinner from 5-7 p.m. Thursday the All Steak will have a German dinner buffet, reservations only, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Friday the Christ Lutheran Church will have their German Dinner beginning at 5 p.m. And rounding out the food extravaganza, Saturday the Bratwurst Eating Contest will be held at Festhalle Market Platz at noon. Sample menus from the week include these delectable German dishes:
