bradm Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I'm going to try to be at Blues Fest this afternoon and through dinner into the evening; does anybody have any good food vendor (dinner) recommendations? Are there any vendors to avoid?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Walk over to somerset for some Pho. I saw the prices of the food and was totally disturbed. $8.50 for a falafel from a guy I've never heard of?Better yet, take Velvet's suggestion and hit up dirienzo's on the way and put your sandwich in a cooler bag.

gentlemonkey Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Why dont you pick up a roasted chicken on the way down? I'll bring some paper towels, mayo and a loaf of wonder bread- and we'll have a nice little picnic!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not much worth noting this year, so I would also hit dirienzo's or somerset beforehand. Edited July 8, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
