This year Halloween falls on a Sunday it looks like a lots of people going to be on the streets. In the restaurant we always have had fun with it. This year we have arranged a collaboration with Animal Heaven an animal shelter from which we adopted Truffle – our black cat from. Cats from the shelter will line the side walk in front of our handsome restaurant Klee Brasserie to be adopted. Of course in the restaurant we’ll serve animal themed foods such as duck pate – our cat loves it and for the sweet tooth we’ll serve super moist dulce de leche cake.

eggs one at the time and the vanilla extract.
3. Sift flour and baking powder then add to butter mixture (2 tablespoons at a time, on low mixer speed setting); mix until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Let the dogs out...
Brats – Dogs & Wieners our other restaurant is all about sausages.
Brats will focus on a Bratwurst made with all natural beef and chicken in a “quicky” version meaning small enough for kids to pop in their mouths at once. Of course there will be the Animal Heaven truck outside with cute puppies (to be adopted) meanwhile we’re getting ready for a serious Halloween crowd...
