| - Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of Beard Papa's, and I'll usually buy a 6 or 12 pack from their Monterey Park or Little Tokyo location when I'm coming back home from a Dodger game. But, come on man! $3.00 for one Beard Papa's cream puff. Sorry, but even at Ala Moana Shopping Center, these puffs are only $1.75 for an original size.
I believe the owners of FAME are reading Yelp reviews, because the music wasn't blazing as everyone mentioned. Also customer service was solid, but looking at these prices at some of the other vendors at FAME, it's pretty understandable that those businesses are either paying a premium for the spot, or there just taking advantage of the location; I like to think it's the first. In any case, they better do what Brooklyn bowl is doing with their $9.99 lunch specials, or Linq's property management have to cut some of these businesses some slack, and let them grow a local clientele.
Why just a three star? One, I'm still a fan of Beard Papa, and this gives them a four stars for the product. On the other hand, I'm looking at 58% mark up for the same great product because it's on the Las Vegas strip, Wow! That really don't make any sense, because I don't see the same mark up for Krispy Kream or McD's on Las Vegas Blvd. Oh well, that gives them a two star for price.
If you haven't had Beard Papa cream puff, and you live in area that doesn't have one, it might be a good idea to check this place out.
