VIP tickets to last year's
New York City Vegetarian Food Festival sold out days--maybe weeks?--before the one-day fest. This year the fest is two days, Saturday and Sunday, March 3 and 4, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and VIP tickets are on sale now for individual days ($20) and the full weekend ($30).
On my way to last year's festival I waltzed right past the line that wrapped around 18th Street and up Seventh Avenue, flashed my VIP ticket at the door, and floated on in to this vegan food sampling mecca. I felt like a freaking queen.
Yes, you can buy $5 tickets at the door. But if, like me, you want to get a solid brunch down before strutting in at the crack of noon, and be admitted before the place shuts down at 5, shell out for the $20 VIP ticket. In addition to the privilege of skipping the line, you get priority entrance for the
speakers series and five raffle tickets, whatever those are good for. Also, the Beyond Sushi people! So many delicious memories.
