Oktoberfest September 26, 2007

“We want to bring to our language students the spirit of Oktoberfest through miniature crash courses in the Bavarian dialect, Bavarian folk music with the tuba and the yodoe, dance steps, German refreshments and an exciting raffle,” says MMB director Reimar Volker.

“We are flying in two German chefs specially for this German week (September 29 to October 5) to rustle up regional German dishes like the Würstchen and Hendl (chicken). Besides, Bitburger, Germany’s number one draught beer brewers, will keep the beer flowing,” says the German consul in Calcutta, Juergen Fischer.

Dig into Bavarian delicacies like Würstchen (sausages), Käsespätzle (cheese noodles) and Sauerkraut (pickled cabbage) and wash them down with authentic German draught beer while swaying to the strains of a Bavarian Brass Band and last, but not the least, learn German in 15 minutes flat!
