Oktoberfest 2011 at Sofitel

 

 

If not for Berto and Tina, I would never have experienced my first ever Oktoberfest.

Berto has not missed it for what… 8 years now? And Tina, she suggested we do this for a change rather than stuff ourselves silly with Kapampangan food. (We can always do that some other day.)

 

Our table

 

When I arrived, people were already having the time of their lives.

 

Many climbed up the benches and danced the night away

 

A few tried their luck and gambled the night away

 

Ladies tried to snag the “Miss Oktoberfest” title

 

Almost everybody in the tent drank at least this much beer

 

Almost.

Except me.

 

I was more interested in eating food

 

 

What I ate:

First of two bowls. Or was it three?

 

Lechon sauce on German ham is Berto’s brilliant idea

 

A few people dressed up for the occasion.

 

Stefan and Tina

 

I’m not really a beer person. But he insisted.

 

I downed this in 8 minutes +/- a few seconds

 

And Berto?

 

He did it in 2.67 seconds!!!

 

Watch him do his 18th mug at 3.07 secs!

 

Us

 

Our photographer. I want that shirt!!!

 

Chef Ian Padilla and his girl

 

I spotted a few celebrities that night.

 

Christopher Reeves and Ding Dong Dantes

 

B52. Nasty stuff.
