Oktoberfest 2012

Our friend invited me and hubby to an Oktoberfest event last Friday which was held at Sofitel. We had no idea what to expect (well, free beer was a given) like how big of an event it was going to be or if food was going to be served, etc. I was honestly just picturing a small party at one of the function rooms with waiters going around serving cocktails and hors d'oeuvres...

Boy was I wrong. I mean, DUH, this was OKTOBERFEST! Of course it would be big! We entered the huge tent and we were greeted by singing and dancing hostesses wearing barmaid outfits. There were so many people already sitting in bench style tables and on top of all the tables were free flowing beer towers, just waiting to be drank and refilled throughout the night.

And the food! There were so much to choose from - rows and rows of buffet tables serving sausages, chicken, beef, potatoes, salads, and dessert! Here's just a few of those I was able to take pictures of...

This was my plate. Sausage fest! Sira ang diet ko!!! ;p

It was so funny since by the end of the night, people were already drunk so some were dancing on top of the tables, falling on the dance floor, and even hitting on the barmaids! hahaha! Anyway, we had a great night although next time, it would be a good idea to book a room at the hotel so you don't need to drive home! ;p
