We start with a schnapps from the distillery under the motto “Alcohol is the best preservative we have on earth”, so that we can also understand the miller’s life 150 years ago.
The medieval meal starts with a natural sourdough bread made from wholemeal flour. This flour is milled in our own flour mill. From this, the sourdough is then made from buttermilk and wholemeal rye and baked into bread in our old bakery, which is fired with beech wood as in the past. Homemade sausage, herb butter and lard round off the special bread taste.

All ingredients are served in a bowl. The skill of each guest now allows every salad variation.
Chicken leg, pork and smoked pork with two kinds of sauces.
Mill bread softened in warm pudding and refined with fine ingredients.
The goulash soup in bread dough, the salad platter with home-pressed oils, three kinds of meat and the home recipes “Eifeler Döppekuchen” and “Birgeler Brotpudding” are reminiscent of Uroma’s recipe world. The “Kölsche Senf” from Erwin’s mustard mill rounds off the taste experience at the mill dinner.
The food and drinks are served by maids in traditional dress.
The miller invites you to sing along in a communal and cozy atmosphere. The program will include folk songs with the musical accompaniment of his mill musicians.
The Kölsche Mühlenabend is accompanied by Cologne songs up to the present day.
Erwin’s mill evening motto is: “Eating, drinking and singing in a cozy historical atmosphere with the miller, the maids and the mill musicians.”
We look forward to seeing you there
Erwin and his mill team
