Traditional Oktoberfest German Fare Returns!

Dirty Martini — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 04:59:15 +0000

My plants have frozen, and I was forced to close the windows at night. This can only mean that summer is over and it’s time to pull out my sweaters and long pants. At the restaurant, it means it’s time for Tim to start cooking his wonderful German fare through the next month. From housemade sausages to rouladens, suaerbraten to schweinhaxe, Tim will be putting his own signature on traditional Oktoberfest favorites.

2007 Oregon White Wines

Monday, September 21, 4-6pm

This month’s Women Tasting Wine seminar features 2007 Oregon White Wines. Here’s what WTW organizer Diane Sienko says about the event:

“Since 2007 was such an incredible year for white varietals, the September 21 WTW Seminar will feature 2007 Oregon White Wines from Penner-Ash, Lumos, St. Innocent, Elk Cove and Bergstrom Wineries. The weather is still warm enough to enjoy a selection of white wines, so we’re taking advantage of these lovely 2007 releases.”

As always, Chef Tim will create some delicious complementary dishes to pair with these outstanding Oregon wines.

WTW meets on Monday, September 21, at the Jackalope Grill. Please arrive 15 minutes early for Women Tasting Wine. Cost is $45. For reservations, please contact Diane Sienko at Bend Wine Cellars (388-7564), or go to the Women Tasting Wine website.

All Oysters Dinner

RESCHEDULED: Sunday, October 25

Conventional wisdom tells us to avoid oysters during months that do not end in “R.” Come celebrate the arrival of September, the first month of the year ending in “R,” with our special All Oyster Dinner, consisting of delectable shellfish creations . . . some even paired with red wine. That’s right! It really can be done!

Jackalope Grill Cooking Classes: February = Great Grains, March = Soups, Stews, Braising

(Bend, OR) Join The Jackalope Grill’s Chef Timothy Garling for upcoming cooking classes, this Monday, February 2 and Monday, March 2. These evenings are filled with great food, wine and cooking tips and secrets. The February class covers “Great Grains,” including risotto, barley risotto, quinoa, farro and amaranth. In March, “Soups, Stews & Braising” is the topic. Cooking classes include wine and hors d’oeuvres, demonstration and hands-on preparation in the kitchen, handouts with recipes and techniques and sampling of menu dishes paired with wine and/or beer.

The Source Weekly writes: “Speaking of branching out, Chef Timothy Garling has been doing a bit of that lately with his popular cooking classes at Jackalope Grill. Because of the strong interest in the classes, which feature cooking tutorials capped off by wine and food, Garling has been adding additional slots.”

Class starts at 6:00 pm at The Jackalope Grill and space is limited (these classes sell out quickly). Cost is $50. For reservations, call The Jackalope Grill at 541-318-8435. For location and info, go to the Jackalope Grill website.
