I'm probably going to take my girlfriend to this event, but I haven't decided if we should go to the Grand Tasting ( Link) which is all day for $212.50 per person, or go to the Amstel Light Burger Bash ( Link) for $200 per ticket. I kinda want to meet Rachael and Bobby upclose, but I also want to feel like I've done more things.
Tickets will go on sale in about 20 days, and I'm fairly certain that they'll sell out pretty fast, even at those prices. If I can't get the tickets to the Burger Bash, then I'll probably go to the Grand Tasting event.
So, who else has $200+ to spend for a day of tasting good food and having a great time rubbing elbows with celebrity chefs?  |
heh
10,000 pesos (using estimated exchange rate) just to attend a one-time event.
On the plus side though, one will get to taste food from Emeril, Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, Alton Brown, Tyler Florence and other Food Network chefs.
So it does have its benefits
