On the last Saturday of September, the Daanen’s Delicatessen parking lot in Hayden, ID, fills with lederhosen-clad, stein-toting, nosh enthusiasts for Oktoberfest!
Traditionally Oktoberfest is a 16-day festival held in Munich, Germany during late September through early October. Six-million attendees make Munich’s Oktoberfest the world’s largest fair! The festivities are centered around eating large amounts of food such as Hendl, Schweinsbraten, Steckerlfisch, Würstel, Brezel, Reiberdatschi, Spätzle and Sauerkraut—in English that would be chicken, roast pork, grilled fish on a stick, sausages, pretzels, potato pancakes, small dumplings and red cabbage. And don’t forget the bier- beer! At Daanen’s celebration you will sample all of this traditional fare served with mugs upon pitchers upon kegs of Spaten Bier.
Once you've had your fill of kraut and polka, one can mosey inside for traditional deli fare like turkey, pastrami, and roast beef. You'll also find Italian dry-cured salami, authentic German bologna and Black Forest Ham. The unique cheese selection includes Roquefort, Bleu, d’Auvergne, Leyden, and double and triple cream Bries. And more imported beers on draft and by the bottle.
Happy Oktoberfest! Prost! Welcome to your weekend! -KB
