Homemade Sausage Sampler

3.5

at Solaire Oktoberfest Tent

(Solaire Resort & Casino)

-Parañaque, Metro Manila, Philippines-

with colleagues

FS, who sits in the office next to me, is German – from Munich, in fact.

She arranged for the gang to attend the 80th annual Oktoberfest event organized by the German Club Manila.

fullsizeoutput_9390 — All you can eat/drink, plus entertainment and raffle, for PHP 4,100.

fullsizeoutput_939d — Held in a massive tent on the grounds of the Solaire.

fullsizeoutput_939b — Weihenstephan Beer – a Munich-based brewery, but not one of the six official Oktoberfestbiers.

fullsizeoutput_61a8 — Weihensteph claims to be the oldest still existing brewery in the world, founded as a monastery in 725, where monks began to brew beer, eventually under licence beginning in 1040.

The food was good. Comprised primarily of processed pork products, with potatoes, breads, cabbage – exactly like the food that I had at München (see 5.184 Spezial Wurstplatte) and in München (see 5.203 Vesper). FS assured us that it was all legit.
