The Big Mango Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) A local restaurant/bar in Rawai in conjuction with four local companies are planning to hold a steak challenge in May. The event will be attended by and filmed by the phuket news as part of their programming. We have several people interested in joining in the challenge but I was wondering if the members knew or even if a member is a celeb that would be willing to join in? Saying that doesnt have to be a celeb , anyone who would like to join that would bring along a few friends to cheer them on , wanting to create a good fun night out with a happy cheerfull atmosphere The premise of the event is three fold , promote the bar , the companies sponsoring the event and also a donation of (10k thb) to a local charity to the winning contestant. They need 4 people who are willing to enter the challenge which will be... A 69oz steak with the usual sides to be eaten within 60 minutes with the winner choosing the charity to receive the donation and of course a few cold beers being sunk by the supporters of each contestant :-). Comments please or pm for any more specific info. Cheers from a not so hungry steak eater , 5555 :-) Edit , of course no charge to the contestants :-) Edited April 29, 2015 by The Big Mango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarenBravo Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Why 69 Oz? Why not 68, or 70? Some kinda sexual connotation? Frankly, I find all "gluttony" competitions a bit crass. Much better competitions can be thought of. How about a three-legged egg & spoon race through an obstacle course? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better competitions can be thought of. How about a three-legged egg & spoon race through an obstacle course? It's closer to 2 kilos of meat.69 is 1.971 grams. Disgusting. I never eat more than 200 grams per serve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansgruber Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 OK, thanks. That makes sense.I was wrong actually. 70 ounces is closer to 2 kilograms. 1.984 grams. So you're probably right being a sexual reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if I didn't eat anything but fruit during the day,I might be able to down the 2 kilos, but overall don't do a lot of red meat here in Thailand. Occasional burger with the crew.
