Strap on your lederhosen as Hilton Colombo brings you its 26th annual Oktoberfest Celebration! Every year underneath the colourful canopy and German flag liners, hundreds of people drink brew, eat bratwurst, and dance the chicken dance throughout the night. German born Executive Chef Robert Mujagic is preparing to cater to more than 10,000 guests at this year’s event popularly known to be the “Original” Oktoberfest.  Inside the large marquee, visitors will be able to enjoy traditional Bavarian food and brew, served by staff wearing ‘lederhosen’, and accompanied by music played by a live band from Germany. Robert will tap into his Bavarian roots to create an Oktoberfest menu consisting Pretzels made with German flour, authentic German Sour Dough Loaf with a thick layer of the most awesome cheese spread known as Obatzda; a Camembert mix with paprika powder and soft butter, thinly sliced Lyoner Sausage with shaved onion in vinaigrette, cold appetizers and salads; Schwarzwälder Schincken - dry-cured smoked ham, produced in the black forest region of south Germany, German Potato Salad and chives, shallots and fresh parsley, and pickled Herrings, more than a ton of home-made traditional German sausages namely Nuremberg, Geflügel Zwiebelwurst,  Munich Sausage or the Pork Liver Wurst with a sweet, hot or mild Mustard!  A few other choices would be the Pork Schnitzel, Knuckle or even the Schweinebraten (roasted crispy pork belly) together with some Sauerkraut. Spätzle & Knodel- Traditional German Swabian pasta and boiled bread dumpling and the Baked Farmers Meatloaf too is recommended! In addition to these dishes, there’s a whole lot more on the buffet with action cooking. For non-pork eaters, there will be other options available like chicken and fish. “Just to keep the local palate happy, we have invented a 100% home-made spicy Sri Lankan Wurst,” says Mujagic.
