| - I had a lot of fun here :) It was probably due to the fact that I went with great people and we managed to devise a little tactic to go get food efficiently. Different people standing in line for different things and then you come together to share your portions OR eat your food while you're in line for something else, lol.
DEFINITELY buy your ticket online before the first day that the event starts so that you can skip the long lines to get in. Don't worry, there's plenty of lines waiting for you inside so this one is unnecessary. GET CASH BEFOREHAND! Don't wait last-minute and have to pay those pesky ATM fees because you didn't plan ahead. The fee this year (2013) was $4.50 that a buddy of mine had to pay.
Parking for this event was definitely organized. I saw many workers doing their best to pick up anyone's littering and there were people constantly wiping down tables to keep them clean.
I did attend the Foodie Fest all three days. However, your single admission fee that you pay gives you access for all three days so might as well make it worthwhile.
We decided not to wait for White Castle because the wait was so ridiculous. Yes, the lines are pretty long for most of the other food trucks but it's a ton of people there for the same reason you are.
1st Day:
- Fried Oreos from one of the fried goodies stand.. $5 for 3. They were delicious! It brought me back to happy memories at the OC Fair.
- THE MAINE LOBSTER LADY: Lobster Mac n Cheese! $14 This was so amazing. It's not how you think a Lobster Mac n Cheese would be and there were big chunks of lobster to make it somewhat worth your money.
- DRAGON GRILLE: Korean beef brisket taco with korean golbi sauce and steamed rice. $3 for a taco. This was actually pretty tasty, but I kind of wish I went with a different sauce. You can choose your own meat and sauce.
- FLUFF ICE: Blue honey boba with lychee jelly and egg custard. $4 for the S size. I liked it. Not the best boba I've had but definitely not the worst. Next time I'll try one of their other creations.
- SIN CITY CUPCAKES: Chocolate Wasted cupcake. $5 for one alcohol infused cupcake. This one I purchased as a food gift for a friend of mine and she really liked it. They do check ID before they sell to you!
2nd Day:
The first stand we went to was The Maine Lobster Lady because we were craving some more Lobster Mac n Cheese. So delicious *O*
- TWISTED LEMON: Frozen Twisted Strawberry. $5 for a delicious drink to cool you down while the sun was beaming on ya. The line for this stand stayed long throughout the day. Half off refills if you keep your cup :) and they do have stamp cards so that you can redeem a free drink on them. For just the drink (not frozen), it was $4.
- FUKUBURGER: Buta-Burger and Garlic Fries. Can't remember what I paid.. However! My brother had the burger and he loved it. Mm mm the garlic fries never disappoint me.
- SEOUL SAUSAGE: Flaming Balls. $3 a ball. Haha. Hahahaha. This fried kimchi rice ball was pretty delicious with the sauce that accompanied it. I loved the kick of spice. We were in line around.. 8:30 and the gentleman who took my order said I came at the right time because they only had about 6 left. Then he gave me stickers :D
- SLAP YO MAMA: The Snoop Dogg. $9. My two buddies ordered this one since it was one of foods that needed to be shared. I had a nibble of their fried Mac n Cheese, and it was pretty good. They said that they were a fan of the waffle but wish the Mac n Cheese would have been better.
- JOGASAKI SUSHI BURRITO: THIS ONE WAS MY FAV! I ordered the Jogasaki #2A and fell in loooooooooooove! $7 for the mini size and $12 for the regular size. Idk how they managed to do it but the shrimp tempura actually had lots of flavor to it, that's a first for me. It was a burrito with spicy tuna, crab meat, shrimp tempura, and avocado wrapped up in soy paper. Delicious :)
A lot of the vendors sold out on their best items at the end of the day.
3rd Day:
- WA DA PHO: The "Meat Lover's Bowl" $9.50. I thought that this way pretty darn delicious for pho coming out of a food truck! Overpriced? OH YEAH! Lol. The gentleman that ran the stand was very nice and kept cracking jokes. They did have a Square card scanner so they were able to accept credit cards.
I came back on the third day just for Jogasaki Sushi Burrito. The fat kid in me nearly fainted, she was so happy we were taking home two regular-sized Jogasaki #2A's.
I can't wait for next year!
