| Fun festival with a lot of beer. |
Oktoberfest is a sixteen-day festival held each
year in Munich, Germany, running fair, with some
six million people attending every year, and is
an important part of Bavarian culture. Other cities
across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations,
modeled after the Munich event.
The Munich Oktoberfest, traditionally, takes place
during the sixteen days up to and including the
first Sunday in October. In 1994, the schedule was
modified in response to German reunification so
Visitors also eat huge amounts of traditional hearty
fare such as Hendl (chicken), Schweinsbraten (roast
pork), Haxn (knuckle of pork), Steckerlfisch (grilled
fish on a stick), Würstel (sausages) along
with Brezeln (Pretzel), Knödeln (potato or
bread dumplings), Käsespätzle (cheese
noodles), Reiberdatschi (potato pancakes), Sauerkraut
or Rotkraut (red cabbage) along with such Bavarian
delicacies as Obatzda (a fatty, spiced cheese-butter
concoction) and Weisswurst (a white sausage)... |
