I personally don’t think it was over prided at all considering these are food trucks and it’s a good festival. I spent $51 at the fest not including the $2 charge for the card: $19 for a lobster roll, $5 for a roller coaster ride, $5 for corn on the cob, $7 for Armenian coffee milkshake, $10 for tacos, $2 for Diet Coke, and $3 for lemonade. I loaded $40 onto my card and then just added as needed depending on what I wanted, towards the end of the night. It doesn’t seem like you can get a refund if you overload on your card so it’s best to load your card as necessary. There are plenty of stations so it doesn’t take a long time to load your card. This is what you would use to load your funds and pay for anything at the festival: rides, food, drinks. It cost $2 to obtain the “Magic Money” card. My friend got three tacos from Pablo's Kitchen for $10 and he said they were really good. ![]() The watermelon lemonade from The Smhoken Pot was the strongest lemonade I have ever had. It had the perfect combination of everything I love: chocolate and caffeine. The Armenian Coffee Milk Shake from Lucy's Waffles and Ice cream was amazing. My favorite thing to eat there was The Connecticut Roll from Cousins Maine Lobster and the corn on the cob. This year Great American Foodie Fest was free admission at the M Resort and Casino and the M Resort had free parking. Overall the environment was fun there was a lot of good people watching to be had but overall the food to us was a disappointment. And listening to some of the folks that were there and while they were waiting in line a lot of them track these high-profile food trucks from either food shows or online so I don't know that anybody really had any idea where the food was good or not and if they had any taste such as my wife and myself they know that it was just average. ![]() Overall the food was average or below and the long wait in line it did not mean that the food was worth waiting for. Using our best judgment and through experience in the past we stood in some of the very long lines ranging from barbecue to Maine lobster and even a sushi burrito. As we meandered through the multiple lines of food trucks and food stands we noticed that some trucks had absolutely no phone lines with very long lines and some had no people at them at all. We were greeted with a very long line at the entrance so this increased our hopes of a great experience. ![]() So my wife and I had high expectations for the foodie Fest as we missed it last year.
