There will also be booths showcasing various German delicacies such as freshly baked Stollen, ginger bread, sizzling sausages grilled over charcoal fire, hearty stews with Wiener Wurstchen, among others.

Weihnacktsmarkt = Glühwein! I wonder if you can transport this to Manila.

Hello Jandrewz!
Thanks for sharing your about Glühwein / mulled wine! I’m not sure if it will be available during the event though, because the event will be taking place in the Ateneo High School grounds on presumably a school day as Dec. 4 is a Friday.
Frohe Festtage!
