The word "Landsknecht" literally means "land farmhand" so fresh fresh
early summer foods would be in order. Making a big deal of the World
Premiere of the first summer berries, calloo callay! A rainbow of stone
fruits should just be appearing by June.
The "Landsknecht" clothing style is known for combining many colors, the
more the better, so work that visual theme into the menu as well.
Many-colored dishes of sauces, etc.
