[title type="h3"]Oktoberfest On The Riverfront[/title]
I can't remember a time when more Oktoberfest celebrations were going on around town. Add yet another venue for eating wurst and schnitzels with distinctive beer: the Crescent City Brewhouse. That's a logical place for it: owner and brewmaster Wolfram Koehler is a German native. He's also kept a high standard of food in his establishment, and that makes the food noteworthy.
Oktoberfest has begun at the Crescent City Brewhouse. The special menu changes from week to week, in a three-course dinner with appetizer, entree and dessert for prices in the high $20s. The menu below is for the first week. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner seven days. Live music every night. Jawohl!
