Local Event
The Taste of Alsace at Shiloh Manor Farm celebrates the treasures of authentic Alsacian cuisine. Our menu for the evening beings with your choice of Tarte Flambée, a thinly rolled dough topped with Fromage Blanc, sliced onions and smoked bacon, or Tarte à l’Oignon, a tender pastry shell with a custard filling of caramelized onions and a hint of thyme, both selections paired with imported Domain Willm Grand Cru Kirchberg. Domain Willm, located in in Eguisheim, produces some of the region’s most iconic wines for over a century. We are fortunate to be able to feature their wines in our program!
The entrée consists of your choice of: Magret de Carnard Roti, breast of duck, served with braised red cabbage and potato & parsnip gratin, or Baeckeoffe, a hardy beef – lamb – pork stew that is one of the signature dishes of Alsace, served with Choucroute or braised sauerkraut. As a vegetarian selection we are offering Chou Rouge aux Pomme et aux Marrons, braised red cabbage with apples and chestnuts. Our dinner entrées are paired with an uncommon Alsacian red wine, a Pinot Noir also by Domain Willm. The cheese course features imported three Alsacian classics: Munster Géromé (yes, Munster cheese comes from the Alsace region!), La Broére (a bit like gruyere) and Tomme Fermière d’Alsace, paired with a fabulous sparking Alsacian Crémant by Domain Arthur Metz in Marlenheim, France. We conclude with your choice of a mixed fruit tart topped with homemade cinnamon-kirsch ice cream or Tarte au Fromage Blanc, a decadent Alsacian cheesecake, along with coffee and tea. Live French bistro music (with a hint of Octoberfest!) accompanies dinner. For more information: www.shiloh-manor.com
