Fine Dining Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest Fine Dining at Royal Brock
At Royal Brock Retirement Living, Fine Dining has been a monthly tradition for the past nine years. These evenings bring residents together to share not only a special meal but also the warmth of friendship and community. They are always filled with good food, laughter, and plenty of fun.
Evening Highlights
This month’s theme was Oktoberfest. Residents enjoyed authentic German dishes prepared by our kitchen team. Renata and Corrie added to the celebration by dressing in traditional Dirndls, which brought lots of smiles and laughter. After dinner, live entertainment was provided by Barry Yuen and his trio, rounding out the evening with music that everyone enjoyed.
