Gigantic tequila quest / crawl for Fasching

WHAT: A bunch of us are planning to go out on Saturday night and consume excessive amounts of tequila. only tequila. We've been planning to do this for the past couple of weeks, so it's just a lovely coinki-dink that it happens to be on Fasching/Carnival.

WHERE: various places up, down, around Leopoldstrasse

WHEN: Saturday 11 November. 8-9PM until whenever the last person hurls

WHO: the more the merrier...so far, we have about 7-8 willing members including some fine people we met at the Amnesty Int'l Make Some Noise show last Friday. I foresee this turning into quite the international event (as we even have a token German person tagging along hehe *inside joke*)

So yeah, this is all just a rough plan...a 'crawl' could become a bit more complicated if we have alot of people obviously. A starting point is yet to be determined...so please offer your suggestions!

Oh, ya bugger, i would have loved to join you in my favourite quest for Tequila but this weekend it's both the GNO and BNO so i will miss it as will many of your target audience i suspect.

You could always start at 11.11 (that's a.m.!) when Fasching "officially" starts...

And the frisbee people have a night out too.

And the wine Fest at the MOC

Why not do it a week later, as so much is going on this saturday?

OOO0000ooohhhh pretty pictures. I'll start my training tomorrow. Tequila in the morning, tequila in the evening. Be ready.

Tool is the weekend after, and yeah it's been postponed by a couple of weeks already..this weekend is the max number of nods i've gotten so far. if it's a success (and how could it not?) i'm sure there will be sequel events...

This can be seen as a G&BNU of sorts with much more potentially dangerous alcohol than beer hehe.

My recommendation is load up on greasy food beforehand, and if you are prone to losing your motor functions as the night wears on (lookin @ you redstitch )...bring a helmet.

Pushups and doner kebabs right?

I've been researching some varieties of this mezcal magic...I am lookin forward to trying some Don Quilo...

I'm never going to live that down.

don't feel bad, i might end up outdoing you on saturday.

Good lord...that would not end well. I'd feel guilty about drinking before noon!

As redstitch so thoughtfully reminded me...I think this thread should be revived...

so we have now decided a starting point for this Quest...I think a 9-9:30PM is still a pretty good time to meet

Tacos y Tequila
Herzogstr. 93, Schwabing
U-Bahn U3/6 Münchner Freiheit or U-Bahn U2 Hohenzollernplatz (which I believe is closer)

Where we go from there...well let's just say the truth is out there, and it's looking for tequila.

If anyone knows of places in schwabing/leopoldstr. vicinity where they serve some Don Quilo, or 1800 or any decent añejo or repósado...please inform us!

So far we have about 10 people attending so far, including frenchmen, south africans, and australians oh my!

and a dutch girl!

now, the meeting point is great!
Meet there at 9h30 for the beginning. i will do my best to make a roadmap to other places of good tequila.

outstanding. This is turning into quite an international event...we should talk about world peace perhaps.

Drinking Tequila before you're already so drunk you have compromised your powers of discretion: you're either mad or ... erm ... well no actually there is no alternative explanation, you are clearly insane. Put your analyst on danger money baby...

right accross the street from Tacos is a Mexican Place with a large selection of Tequila called El Paso, great little bar run by a very friendly Mexican.
The up the street on Fallmeyerstr is a place called Namenlos- also a great selection of Tequila.

why do I know all this.

ps- I am meeting some friends at the MOC for wine earlier - maybe we can join you later.

have fun!

oh wine and tequil on 11-11 (my fav day of the year) how i envy you people. please have a few for me as i have to babysit-grrrrrrr (and i'm also stuck sitting here working until 8pm, at the earliest!)

Bless your soul Carm!

Just set your watch to summer time again!

sorry, made a mistake the bar/restaurant accross from Taco 'n' Tequila is El Patio. (was listening to country music radio while online and just heard the old El Paso Song ).

El Patio is the best Mexican Food in the city. Also the bar tender/owner is a real tequila collector. He has some of the finest bottles I have ever seen outside of Mexico! And if straight tequila is not your thing he makes a great Margarita, no mix all fresh.

I'll be there! a few quiet shots of tequila sounds good

@Carm...thank you very much...if that place is across the road, it really will make it an obvious next stop!

@cantthinkofawittyname...welcome aboard. i'll PM you my number so if you can't find us, etc. u can gimme a buzz!

If only the weather wasn't so bad...but then i don't think it will matter haha

Alright I've made the reservation for 14 people at Tacos y Tequila for 9:00PM as they don't allow bookings after that time...so if you're comin, please try to make it a bit early hehe

Was a good night! Free shots!

you sneaky englishman haha

yes twas a good night...though we didn't get to talk about world peace (although my expression in the photo makes it look like i was thinking of some truly profound things..),

also we only made it to 2 bars...but yeah the quest was successful. good night.

i love mezcal.

Why can't I eat anymore?

Ah, yes we did meet, Deep Schismic! Hope you had lots of fun con tequila. Next time, eh?

kudos to Carm and ejkantor re: El Patio.

That place was awesome, and the bar tender Jorge knows his tequila indeed...will definitely be going back there for another tequila quest in the near future...hopefully more TTers can make it!

That bar guy was a legend! Drinking with us, giving us free shots, wasnt too keen on his tomato juice, tabasco, salt, pepper and grenadine cocktail shots things tho!

Man i loved that...it let the feeling of the tequila linger longer (haha that sounds funny when you say it over a few times)

Yea...that bar guy was...a Magician!! He has bewitched us!!! And I couldn't stop...

I could be saved if only I'd put my attention on the defined SIGHN in the in the entrance of the Tacos y Tequila: DRUNK TREE!!!

There was an absolutely drunk tree in the pot lying on the ground... But I ignored it...

Actually I enjoyed, thanks a lot to all the inspirators aaand…thanks for help me to stand (was I standing?...)

'standing'..sure I guess you were standing', for a bit...

'leaning' would be more accurate.

'drunk trees'...they're an endangered species, what with the overpopulation of its greatest predator...the drunken urinating human...
