You don’t have to wait until the dog days of summer to enjoy the tastes of one of Dayton’s favorite festivals.
Dayton Liederkranz-Turner, the German club behind Germanfest Picnic set for Aug. 10, 11 and 12 at RiverScape MetroPark, introduced a new Monday lunch a week ago.
Patricia Kister, a loyal member of the club located at 1400 E. Fifth St. in Dayton's St. Anne's Hill historic neighborhood, hipped us on to the lunch and even shared a few pics.

The lunch to be held 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mondays—today included — is open to the public.
Carryout meals are available.
The menu includes brats, metts, schnitzel with gravy and a host of Germantastic sides like red cabbage, potato salad, noodles and of course sauerkraut.

On June 18, the club expects to serve linse and spätzle with a salad as a special. On June 25, it will be weiß wurst with a pretzel.
Prost to that!
