German food festival
2011-06-30
ALLÉE BLEUE in Franschhoek will introduce a weekly German food festival every Sunday from July. Visitors to the estate will be tucking into a lavish buffet of authentic European-style sausages, cold cuts, mustards, breads and traditional side dishes, all washed down with ice cold Paulaner weiss beer or lager. Live music by Benjamin Peaceful will set the mood and children will be kept entertained with a jumping castle and movies while their parents kick back and relax. On the hot buffet menu are a variety of sausages, paired with a selection of sweet mild mustards. There are also other traditional dishes like giant eisbein with crispy crackling served with sauerkraut and wiener schnitzel with Lyonnaise potatoes. Cold cuts will include bierschinken, ham sausage and smoked servelat with a variety of salads like tomato and onion, potato and radish. Of course no German feast would be complete without gherkins, pickles, and freshly baked breads and rolls. Finish with a South African cheese platter, light and buttery apple strudel with vanilla sauce, Kaiserschmarrn: which is a light, caramelised pancake made from a sweet batter and seasonal fruit compote. The German food festival runs every Sunday from 11:30 till 15:00 and costs R145, R45 for children under 10 years old and free for children under five years old.
