Please join us for a very special afternoon featuring favorites from Papa Haeringer’s beloved Alsace. Sip on an Alsatian favorite, Lucien Albrecht Crémant d’Alsace, during Chef Jacques’ cooking demonstration.
The Alsatian feast entrée has been on our menu for over sixty-four years, and includes sauerkraut, sausages, pork, duck confit and foie gras.
For a lighter version, try the The dessert, brought to America by Papa Haeringer from Alsace, Grandmama’s Favorite Kougelhopf en Neige, is a light and fluffy baked meringue with vanilla sauce.
The five-course luncheon is paired with three fine wines from Alsace, where minerality and freshness aren’t just concepts, they are the story of the wines. Vive Alsace; Papa’s homeland!
