BANCHETTO!!!

Finally, my husband and I get to visit the Banchetto Feast in Ortigas which was initially planned on October 8, 2010. But since some of my Cainta friends are not available at that time, we moved the date to October 15, 2010 (SAHOD!). I've read some blogs beforehand to have a glimpse of what to expect on this event..As expected there were too many people around the area and there was like a huge surge of them.

My husband and I were already there at 11pm because this is the set time I've told my friends..We've watched how the event started and they were still installing their food stands..We were sitting in front of the PLDT building at that time..

We were kind of bored at this moment because our friends have not yet arrived..

Here are the owners of the food stands and they are preparing to setup their areas..

Happy Halloween!!!

Ok..LIGHTS ON!And the people are starting to increase in number..

Alright, just a few minutes more and the event is about to start..

Abe and Mac have arrived..

And so are Ryan and Jeebs..

We were not able to purchase immediately at any of the stalls because there was a huge surge of people all around so we decided to wait till 1:30am and just drank a couple bottles of San Mig Light first at Eat My English..

When we head back, we went straight to the stall of Juicy Lucy but there were no more burgers for us..However, our friend Marko together with his girlfriend Fibi were able to score some for them, fortunately we got ours as well..YEY!!
