OFFICIAL Food & Wine Update

[CarolA]

Those of you with DDE check your email. The brochure for the special events just showed up in mine.

I attempted to copy it here, but it's a PDF file and that just isn't working for me so...

A few highlights.

Party for the Senses appears to be every Sat night, it's gone up $125

The Food Network Conversations are not showing who you get... If I knew I might try for one, but..

If you post questions I will come back later and try to respond. Hopefully someone with the full verison of Adobe can convert this and post it!

Wow- that seems pretty big price hike for POS

 

[Princess4Eeyore]

The price jumped $30 - wow - is it worth it? We were thinking about it but I am not sure.

I'm pretty tight with money, but I feel that Party for the Senses is worth it even at the new price.

Thanks SamSam - this will be our first Food and Wine Fest and we really want to try POS - but was hesitant when I saw the price increase. I've heard nothing but great reviews about it so maybe we will still try it

This is my first time hearing of the price increase (Hey...I just realized...I have the DDE card, why do I not get these newsletters?)

DH is sitting here, watching a Clint eastwood werstern, and I told him, "Uh-oh, apparently PftS has increased in proce to $125."

I was thrilled to here him say, "So?" I aksed him.."You still feel it is worth it?" he said, "Oh yeah, no doubt!"

The thread does have discussion on the price increase - kinda like CRT - what are you going to do? It is an awesome event - as long as they continue to have the "moderate" wines as opposed to the "value" wines, it will be worth it!! I just wish they would've increased the time, or given us a bottle of wine or something for the extra $30!! BUT that's just me!!

Thanks for the link, eeyore!

Oooh, yeah, a bottle of wine! That would be good! I think my DH would like them to send the Cirque contortionist home with us! Haha.

I do like how they let you keep those beautiful glasses. I used to use mine all the time until I BROKE IT and now DH won't share his...says I am too clumsy!

I was thinking about doing the POC also this year and was hesitant even before the price increase. My husband dosen't drink. And lol I can't drink for two people's worth of wine so, is it still worth it if you factor out the wine?

 

[Figment2]

I really don't drink wine (I will have one beer at the Sam Adams booth) and I love party of the senses. Just the experience and the food is worth the price.

This will be our first year at POS. I was disappointed by such a big price increase! BUT, we will still go. I wish they had a price for those of us who don't drink alcohol. I don't drink at all. DH will drink the beer. Not too big on wine. What to do? The reviews are awesome and I'll just have to eat extra desserts?
