New: German Oktoberfest cooking workshop and feast coming soon

On Saturday, October 4, we will be hosting our first-ever cooking workshop and feast to celebrate Oktoberfest. Originating in the Bavarian city of Munich in 1810, Oktoberfest is now celebrated all over the world. In Urbana, we will celebrate this festival season with a traditional German banquet and cooking class featuring traditional German recipes, and of course, German beer.

German cuisine is known for its hearty and savory dishes and a long tradition of sausage-making as well as fermentation of vegetables like cabbage. But the highlight of this cooking workshop will be guest chef Kayla Lammy's Deer Bratwurst, modified from a recipe from her father. We will be making this sausage from scratch along with a feast of traditional German favorites.

This is a four-hour hands-on cooking workshop for adults where all students will participate in the preparation of all the dishes on the menu. Do come hungry and thirsty because the tuition includes a full festival menu, and you will be eating everything you cooked that day.
