Thread Name: NEFFA 02, anyone?
Subject: RE: NEFFA 02, anyone?
Let me explain my comments on the food. I am used to paying captive-audience rip-off prices. If I hop across the GWB to a club in Manhattan, I expect to pay $2 for a Coke, but I don't like it when a festival pulls that same bullcrap. That's why NEFFA was a pleasant surprise. I admit the Indian food was overpriced, but then I'm spoiled by the many $6 all-you-can-eat Indian buffets in the New York metro area. Everything else was what I called fairly priced. Not neessarily cheap, but fair value. There was at least one bargain to be had: 50c for lemonade at the Lithuanian food table. The Mexican table was charging $1.50 for a cup of lemonade that was only about 50 percent larger.
