MARGARITA CHALLENGE 2008

 

 

Margarita Challenge Huge Success

 

Tiki Wins The Margarita Challenge for Classic Margarita; Vicky Wins Exotic

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Margarita Challenge was held at the Pina Colada Restaurant on Wednesday. The evening began with bids on the silent auction. The tables were filled with items; booze baskets to golf balls, Xaltemba Gift Certificates to Model Cars.

 

Dinner was served to the 190 or so guests; prime rib or shrimp. Afterwards the challenge began.

Nervous contestants vied for the best Margarita. Hands were shaky; the mood subdued.

 

The concoctions are judged on a variety of criteria. Not only are they rated on the taste, after taste etc., but the contestant is rated on presentation and other outside factors. Outside factors can include mordita.

 

Vicky, this year hosted a Magician who amazed the crowd of onlookers.

 

The contestants margargaritas are auctiuoned off to the highest bidders.

 

 

 

Tiki from the Bavarian Gardens Restaurant won the Classic Margarita and Vicky from Vicky's bar won the Exotic Division. Congratulations.
