Interwar Cuisine
About this event
We invite you on an "Interwar Cuisine" culinary journey ♥ This tour and tasting is designed for those interested in Lithuania's interwar cuisine. Awaits you is a 1-hour tour of the Temporary Capital (Žaliakalnis), followed by a 1.5-2 hour tasting at the restaurant "Park Avenue" (Perkūno al. 4, Kaunas) and stories about the cuisine of that era, dishes favored by famous people, the dietary habits of the high society, and the daily life of restaurants and cafes. We will be guests in the building at Perkūno al. 4, which was the residence of the German envoy during the interwar period. It is no surprise, then, that the tasting menu was selected based on what the last envoy to reside here, E. Zechlin, liked to serve his guests. We gained much valuable knowledge from the envoy's grandson, Thomas, who visited us here. The tour begins at the Kaunas Sports Hall (Perkūno al. 5). The tour route will lead us through the streets of Žaliakalnis and take us to "Park Avenue" (Perkūno al. 4).
