Must Try: Brick & Barrel’s Hand-Cut Spätzle

With its blended Parmesan base, this soulful dumpling rendition is a super-savory and texturally complex Oktoberfest treat, thanks to thin slices of medium-rare rib eye, wild mushrooms, and chopped red onions. It’s a rock-solid year-round accompaniment to any of Brick & Barrel’s craft beers.

$10. 870 Welsh Road, Maple Glen, (267) 462-4528.
