Overlooking Schiller Park, we begin at 71 E. Deshler Ave. with appetizers of mini onion tarts, soft pretzels with mustard sauce, maple mustard sausage and a ‘bier’ cheese fondue station with crudités and artisan sausages. We’ll then einen bummel machen to 123 E. Deshler Ave for our mains server tapas style. Potato pancakes w/ chunky apple sauce, bacon beer brat wraps, stuffed pork cabbage rolls, slow braised beef short ribs and Braumeister Schweinesteak (brewed pork sirloin steak). Dessert is a bierox: a stuffed puff pastry with strawberries and mascarpone followed by a refreshing palate cleanser of watermelon or lemon sorbet. And in keeping with our theme, along with cocktails, bier & wein will be flowing all evening. We look forward to wishing you Guten Appetit at our Oktoberfest in June! ODE TO JOY Jeff & Mary Jablonski 874 City Park Avenue Friedrich von Schiller wrote Ode to Joy in the summer of 1785 as a celebration of the unity of all mankind. When put to music 60 years later by Beethoven, it became one of the greatest works in all of western music. We invite you to celebrate this great pairing of words and music with some great pairings of our own! Appetizers and ‘break the ice’ activities bring a joyful start to our evening. This will be followed by a fresh green salad and our main, succulent chicken cordon bleu with sides of asparagus and stuffed baked potatoes. Mini strawberry napoleon pastries for dessert will leave you longing for an encore. “O friends…let us sing more cheerful songs, more songs full of joy, joy, joy!” POETRY. PARTY. PLACE. VIEW OF THE VILLAGE – SCHWARTZ CASTLE Brent Beatty & Scott Mackey Tim Bibler 490 South Third Street - “The Schwartz Castle” A true landmark of this place we call home, Schwartz Castle is the setting for our dinner. We offer something for every palate, from our hearts of romaine salad composed of romaine lettuce with local heirloom tomato, fresh chives, thick shaved parmesan cheese & Caesar dressing to our mains: herb crusted sur aile chicken with au jus and tender 4 oz. chianti braised short ribs. Creamy polenta, roasted rainbow carrots and artisan breads pair with the meal. Dessert is a traditional Italian dish with a decadent twist! Guests will select a budino (a creamy custard) flavor served in a mini glass topped with a chocolate lid. But you won’t twist off the lid…instead, a chef will break it by pouring on various hot toppings before serving. Please join us! MEXICAN FIESTA Joe & Alissa Carbonaro Charles & Cathy King Brett & Tina Lantz 877 South Fifth Street “TO READ A POEM IS TO HEAR IT WITH OUR EYES; TO HEAR IT IS TO SEE IT WITH OUR EARS.” Octavio Paz – Mexican Poet We promise you lots of hearing and seeing not to mention eating, drinking and perhaps even some dancing at our traditional Mexican Fiesta! Our homemade burrito bar “chipotle style” will include: cilantro lime rice, black beans, barbacoa shredded beef, chicken fajitas with grilled vegetables and all the fixings. Our chip station features queso, salsa and guacamole and what Mexican feast would be complete without tres leches and macaroons of Mexican chocolate? Margaritas, beer and wine will be available – because we did say there might be dancing, right? *Gluten free option POETRY. PARTY. PLACE. PAISLEY PARK John Pribble & Darci Congrove Patti Orzano 756 Jaeger Street Our evening is a tribute to Prince Rogers Nelson – a singer, a songwriter and certainly a poet. Dine to the tunes of this great talent on a decadent five course feast (fit for a prince, of course) served outdoors on tables draped with purple and gold. You’ll enjoy a menu including lobster salad, sea bass with grapefruit sauce, grilled lamb chops, an abundance of market- fresh vegetable dishes, and finished with a raspberry (beret) tart. So hop into your Little Red Corvette and come on over, ready to party like it’s 1999. SONG OF THE BELL Dan and Kate Culley-Rapata 207 East Whittier Street Friedrich von Schiller’s longest poem, Song of the Bell ends with the words, ‘Be a joy to this town…’ Join us in creating our own ending to Song of the Bell by ‘Being a joy to this place…’ in our music, food, and wine filled garden party! We begin with charcuterie from Thurns and house-made gougères paired with a sparkling German wine and beer selections. This is followed by a frisee salad with “molten” goat cheese and a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. Our entrée is a grilled Tuscan pork loin with sides of polenta with and summer vegetables perfectly matched with an aged German Riesling or Russian River Pinot Noir. For dessert we have “Frozen Bells” (more commonly known as homemade ice cream sandwiches) with, what else, an ice wine. Prost! POETRY. PARTY. PLACE. OHIO STATE FAIR JoAnn Davidson, Betty Montgomery, Karen Conrad, Carol Porter, Jim Conrad, Bill Curlis In Macon Alley behind 800 Mohawk Street This party ticks all the boxes of poetry, party and place. The state fairgrounds: historic and nostalgia-inducing. Try to name a bigger party than the Ohio State Fair. And as a venue for arts of all sort, poetry is most certainly among them. But for many – the state fair is all about the food. If you can fry and eat it from a stick, you’re in the right genre! So how ‘bout fried veggies (and pickles), corn dog bites, salad on a stick, fried chicken, shredded pork Sandwiches, brats with peppers and onions, coleslaw and cornbread. And to finish? Deep-fried desserts and homemade ice cream. But hold yer horses, er, cows. There will be a hand-carved butter cow by local artist Betty Montgomery. Step right up! A JOYFUL FEAST Jim & Nancy Turner Bill Curlis 164 Thurman Avenue The opening stanzas of Ode to Joy are often referred to as being a ‘universal welcome to everyone’. In keeping with that theme, we welcome you to our party! For starters, we’ll feature Bill’s Famous cucumber sandwiches, shrimp shooters and bacon wrapped dates. You’ll be making a joyful noise as you take the first bite of our entrée: Filet mignon with Marcella wine sauce and sautéed mushrooms. Asparagus with lemon slices and flat bread will also be served before moving to dessert: chocolate decadence and Nancy’s roasted cherry ice cream. In Schiller’s poem, he tells us joy is needed for life and motivation. We hope you’re motivated to join us for our Joyful Feast. POETRY. PARTY. PLACE. TRANSITION. TRANSFORMATION. PRESERVATION. THROUGH THE YEARS. Tammi Hall & Jim Nichols 35 East Sycamore Street Just as Schiller Park has transitioned over the last 150 years, so has 35 East Sycamore Street. We invite you to be our first dinner guests in our newly transformed and remodeled home. We’ll begin our evening sipping beverages of choice while we tour the home (and the only working smoke house in German Village!). Assorted appetizers are next: vorspeise oftenkartoffel (baked potato bites) vorspeise garnele (cooked, deveined shrimp served with cocktail sauce), Bruschetta with tomato and basil gewurze and an artisan kase, oliv & essiggurken tray (yep – that’s a cheese & relish tray). Dinner begins with spinat salat (spinach salad with apfel, emmetaler, kaschu and sweet and sour poppyseed dressing) followed by Beef Tenderloin with oliv oil) and knoblauch (garlic). Side dishes include kartoffelspalten (potato wedges tossed in butter, knoblauch and parmesan kase), and grune bohnen (green beans with knoblauch, red pfeffer and nusskiefer (pinenuts). Classic German cakes and assorted treats end our meal on a sweet note. Wilkommen in unserem zuhause! DUTY OF ALL Jim & Cindy Hopple 569 South Sixth Street In ‘The Duty of All’, Schiller tells us to, ‘Join, then, thyself to some whole…’.
