Chef Dan Jacobs explained, “Chef Cole Ersel is known for his affinity for German heritage cooking, and we couldn’t think of a better time of year to spotlight this than Christmas time. Menu items include traditional German holiday classics with an EsterEv spin on them but true to our ethos, every menu item will have that spark of nostalgia that people come to EsterEv for. We love hosting guest chef dinners because it allows us to partner with some of our favorite creatives in town. My brother is the Head Distiller at Goose Island. He's done an incredible job with the pairings."
