Coffee & Halo-Halo booth was one of the bestsellers at the Festival
with long lines of customers until they run out of ingredients after only
three hours from opening. Gigi Hobson (in red printed shirt standing ideways) had to run to her shop to get some more. Gigi Hobson is one of the prime movers in making this first annual festival happen and very successful in their fort. She is the program coordinator of this festival hosted by the AFAA, in cooperation with other organizations like PASA (Philippine American Society of Austin and other cultural groups). |
Bahay Kubo owners, Louie & Jennifer Perez, were also first timers in joining this kind of Filipino festival. They did not expect the big turn-out and they run out of food for sale just half-way of the festival. |
