Oktoberfest in Ipoh???

On a cool night in Ipoh whats one to do after a hard days work..but..head on down to Frens Corner towards the Kinta river bank at the end of Jalan Tun Sambantan after Maybank.;;(picture below of Frens Corner..just open air corner with tents.. the tall building at the back is Maybank / Wisma U-Meng) Actually Frens Corner takes up the back portion of the Chinese Tin Miners Club building.

...interestingly that night there were these "Tiger Ladies" in Oktoberfest uniforms...Apparently only Tiger has done this promotion...and its nice..Oktoberfest with local Fraulines...an interesting gimmick..but that's not all....the cost of the beer is RM12 only..."while stocks last"...can't complain can we???

....a little spirit with the usual variety of cuisine...

..nice open air environment...its a nice way to enjoy the night...


....btw...saw this on the wall going to u-no-ware...which incidentally was clean enough...

cheers!

St Patricks..Ipoh...Aye its all right!!!

..this is the place.. St Patricks..along Cowan Street...an old building...restored

....glad there are entrepreneurs that have an eye for this kind of architecture...wonders ???..how they manage to make it blend in with the enviroment...and to think early this year it was used for selling economy rice????...

..the interior is nice...obviously i love the long bar...ales always taste better drunk standing up..they've got the usual spread of beers..though i love the Guiness draught...

..they do serve food .. but its never enough somehow...wonder why???

..pouring out the guiness draught...this bar tender was good...gives a good head too.

...apparently its popular during the happy hour....

..yum yum...goodness on tap.....

....and just imagine this wasn't even Oktoberfest yet!!!

...didn't i say the bar was long....

..check it out ....and Cheers!
