Kaiser Maximilian Goes Greek in August Laura Gelezunas - PVNN
At Kaiser Maximilian, Chef Andreas Rupprechter combines his experience in Europe and Mexico to create innovative dishes that merge new and old world cuisine, and this month, he's serving up a special menu featuring dishes from Greece through Aug 30th.
Chef Rupprechter decided to feature Greek food because he has relatives in Greece, visits often, and wants to share this interesting cuisine with you.
Appetizers include the traditional Greek salad, Horiatiki, with diced cucumber, tomato, red onion, feta and calamata olives is tossed with extra virgin olive oil. Another super starter, Spanakopita y Tiropita, translates to phyllo dough layered with spinach, eggplant and feta.
Simmering entrée choices include, Moussaka, eggplant and ground beef topped with melted cheese and Bechamel sauce; Souvlaki, skewered and grilled chicken, bell peppers, onions and tomato served with seasoned green rice and a yellow chili stuffed with goat cheese; and the Gyro, sautéed beef, onions, mushrooms, and peppers, served with grilled pita bread and Tzatziki, which is yogurt, cucumber and garlic sauce.
Baklava, phyllo pastry layered with nuts and honey, adds the perfect finishing touch to the special Greek menu, so stop by Kaiser Maximilian and celebrate the end of summer with some less expensive and lighter fare.
And don't forget, in September, Kaiser Maximilian always celebrates El Mes de la Patria by serving up traditional Mexican dishes.
