Alsatian poster

Fancy a beer, a kougelhof or a pretzel? This original creation by Lotza showcases the gourmet treasures of Alsace, a region with a culinary identity as rich as it is delicious. Illustrated with humor and refinement, this work celebrates a generous land, recognized as one of the most starred in France by gastronomic guides. Alsatian gastronomy is a true crossroads of traditions. Influenced by French and German cultures, but also by Swiss and Italian touches, it stands out for its authenticity and its attachment to local products. Among the emblematic dishes, we find the sauerkraut garnie, generously served with various smoked meats, the baeckeoffe — a simmered dish of potatoes, meats and vegetables —, or the flammekueche, a thin tarte flambée with bacon and cream. Sweet treats are not left out: the kougelhof, a majestic brioche cake often filled with raisins and almonds, the small Christmas shortbread biscuits called bredele, or even the knepfle, a type of traditional fresh pasta, delight the most demanding palates. Every season, every festival, every village has its recipes. When it comes to drinks, Alsace is also a land of great wines. Its beer, light or more full-bodied depending on the local brewery, is a source of regional pride. The wines of Alsace – Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Muscat – are renowned throughout the world for their finesse and aromatic richness. Kirsch, a cherry brandy, completes this palette of flavors with a stronger, fruitier touch. With this illustration, Lotza captures the essence of Alsatian cuisine: convivial, generous, rooted in tradition but always alive. A visual invitation to feast... for the eyes and the taste buds.
