During the months of September and October Spec’s will be celebrating the German Heritage in food and drink at its Midtown location in Houston.

A shelf in the entrance of the area will showcase products out of Spec’s vast stock that describe best German food culture (only shelf stable items). Additionally to it materials on Germany such as tourist magazines, maps, economic outlooks, etc. will be available for free for further education on Germany’s culture and mostly food culture.

During the Saturdays of the month, one or two sample stations will be dedicated to German products culminating in two big tastings with several stations of food and beverage samples.

The first tasting will be on Saturday, October 8th with tastings on marmalades, meats, honeys, snacks, etc. as well as some German wines and spirits.

The second tasting will be on Saturday, October 29th, if we get our Christmas products in till then. If so, there will be samplings of several of the Christmas items, as well as explanations about the Christmas culture in Germany. Stay tuned to updates.

All these events will take place from 11-2 on Saturdays at 2410 Smith Street.
