BERLIN CHEESE DAYS 2017

This post is also available in: German

IN THE HISTORICALLY PROTECTED ARMINIUS MARKTHALLE

Saturday, February 25, 5  to 11 pm and Sunday February 26, 10 am to 4 pm

s_bluetenkaese-unicode-codierungskonfliktBerliners love good cheese. They’ve been unfailing vocal on this point at past Cheese Days at the Arminius Markthalle. Market sellers, producers, frommeliers and affineurs have stood across the counter from over 2,200 gourmets, gourmands and curious regulars at the Arminius Markthalle. The event has been so popular that at times they’ve had to restrict admission. It’s the cheese that draws all those gourmets to the finest gastronomy market hall in Germany. It’s about (rediscovered) tradition and craftsmanship in producing a special foodstuff of unbelievably diverse origins. Above all else, it’s consumers who are sick of soulless industrial products from dead milk drawn from cows in industrial dairies.

We’ve had cheese from around Europe and even the US. It was a pleasure to see how visitors tested, purchased, attended seminars and tastings and generally had a grand time in the market hall. And so it is with tremendous joy that the eat! berlin team announces that the Arminiushallen have signed on for another year!

Michaela Freier and Samuel Zach from “mfe event coach,” the event partner for hall owner Zunft AG, will be inviting 20 different cheese producers, affineurs and cheese sellers to the Arminius Markthalle to present their products to an interested — and often impressively knowledgeable — public.
The permanent market stands and caterers at Arminius Markthalle will also be taking up the cheese banner, providing some refinement to the outstanding offerings. Enjoy the culinary work of Habe die Ehre, Pignut, Hofladen, Fischladen, Naninka, Rosa Lisbert (“Hot Restaurant of the Year”), Lucha Libre and Alimentari e Vini.
Of special note is the large cheesecake buffet at “Mutter aller Tische.” New year, new innovation: We’ve invited the best cheesecake makers in Germany and intend on crowning a “2017 Cheesecake Meister.”

There are other highlights ahead for you as well… here’s a selection:

We’ve invited bread sommelier Holger Schüren. Not only will he discourse on bread, he’ll then put theory into practice by laying a selection of exquisite cheeses on top.

If the winter isn’t too cold, we’ll also be presenting fresh permaculture-grown winter vegetables and herbs from the garden of Café Botanico. The Urban Gardening effort will be explained by Martin Höfft.

Sunday Markthalle matinée with live music
