Our Dining on the 6th adventure for November will be at Madison’s authentic German restaurant, the Essen Haus. Friendship Force diners will gather for fellowship and dinner at 5:30 on Sunday afternoon. We will be able to place individual orders from the menu which includes both American and German cuisine.

The Signature Special for Sundays is tender, broasted half-chicken served with haus made dumplings and gravy and vegetables for $14. Also available are a great selection of starters, sandwiches, salads, and desserts. Main entrees include pork tenderloin, chicken breast, combo platters, walleye, and bratwurst sausages. All are served with a wide choice of potato or spatzle noodles and choice of vegetable. Most entrees are between $17 and $21 to $26 for rouladen with choice prime rib or a 12-ounce bier ribeye. A bowl of soup or side salad is an additional $3.

Essen Haus features 16 rotating German tap bier selections. Their menu lists selections of Doppelbocks, Pilsners, Weissbiers, Lagers, Oktoberfests, Pale Ale, and many others. Biers are available in pints, half-liter steins (standard size), one liter boots & steins, 2 liter boots, and even in a 5 liter stein! Prosit!

For a fun evening out, register by Friday, November 4, with host Gail Holmes, phone 608 249-1846 or email glholmes@wisc.edu, so that our tables will be prepared. Please plan to wear your name tag.

Auf Wiedersehen!
