“Oktoberfest is celebrated all over the world and as an Austrian chef, it is one of the holidays that I get most excited for from a culinary perspective,” said Martin Krebs, Sous Chef at Marcus’, Hamilton Princess & Beach Club.
“Bringing an Oktoberfest menu to Marcus’ and the hotel is a chance to showcase some traditional specialties from my home. Ultimately, it is a holiday surrounded with good food and good beer, and that’s not different from what we try and do at Marcus’ everyday!”
