This was a much-awaited event for me as I wasn’t able to thoroughly enjoy last year’s Yummy Eats. Last year I still had my gallstones and was so limited in what I could eat. I vowed to come back the following year and it proved to be a very delectable, tummy rubbing, hard to breathe experience but in a good way!
This year Yummy Eats was held at Metrowalk’s Metrotent. The ticket increased by Php100 making it Php250 (if you buy online) and Php300 (if you buy it on the day itself). Pretty affordable considering you would be sampling from over 75 concessionaires!
Aside from the food sampling, there were cooking demos, raffles, contests, and awardings of Best Booth Award and People’s Choice Award.
It was a bit of a tight fit in the lobby while people were registering and claiming their tickets. We were there 10am on the dot and as you can see there were plenty of people ready for a day of food splurging.
The lobby had 2 photowalls, 1 where you needed to instagram the hashtag yummyeats2014 before you could get your picture and the other a free for all wall where you could also write messages.
Registration was pretty organized. This year they gave 1 tray per person which was a big help as compared to last year where you only had a small paper plate.
We were also given a passport, and chips to vote for our favorite booth.
This is just a sneak peek of the food that I’ll be featuring from the event. There is more, oh so much more!
Read about Sweets Treats and Savory and Healthy Finds from this year’s Yummy Eats.
Though Metrotent is pretty big it still wasn’t big enough to make it easy for people to line up and pass each other. There were just too many people and hopefully next year they choose a bigger venue.
This was the other photowall I mentioned earlier. Guests could write messages and have their picture taken.
That’s me with my tray and ecobag (I came more slightly prepared by bringing zipper storage bags and an ecobag.
With my friends who joined me at the Yummy Eats event, (L-R) Jamie of Have at You, Dulce, and Rose of RFR Productions.
