[title type="h3"]Oktoberfest At Salu[/title]
Oktoberfest is underway in Munich and everywhere else that celebrates the harvest German holiday. That includes--to a small extent--New Orleans, which has a substantial German population. A newcomer to the celebration this year is Salu, a mixed bag of a restaurant that has become known for its small plates of food, with influences from all over Europe. Their Oktoberfest menu can be had a la carte (at the prices on the menu below), or as a four-course, $45 dinner. Beers and wines can also be paired with the dishes for a price. Here's the menu
Kartoffel und Biersuppe $5
Beer and Potato soup, cheddar knodel, cup or bowl
Flammkuchen $14
Sour cream and bacon flatbread caramelized onions
Brats Und Brezel $12
House-made bratwurst, warm pretzel, spicy mustard and beer cheese
Sauerbraten Und Knodel $25
Roast pork shoulder, potato dumplings, Brussels sprouts
Zwetschgenkuchen $5
Purple plum cake, plum syrup and cream
The Oktoberfest at Salu begins this Saturday, September 19 and runs through Sunday, October 4. You can order either from an a la carte list of five dishes, starting at $5 and going to $20. Or you can select any four items for $45. Reservations would be a good idea. Last year, the menu attracted a pretty substantial crowd.
