Oktoberfest @ Emeril's.
As the month of October wears on, a number of restaurants that never before did anything special for the German celebration of Oktoberfest have done so. Emeril's is one of these, with a special menu that began October 19 and will persist to the end of the month. The menu below brings a five-course dinner for $60, plus plus. Five beers have been selected to pair with each course for an additional $18. That adds up to the most elaborate Oktoberfest we've seen this year. We must be taking the celebration seriously. Which sounds like fun.Charred Winter Greens
