With all of the complaints and madness, I don't think we will. It's a sad thing too. People came here for the love of food only to leave like they wasted their time.

Sure the lines were long, but long lines were expected. One positive thing about long lines is that sometimes you find yourself in a conversation with some really great people. Like the two ladies telling us how the Pastrami sandwich was a lot smaller and how they used different rye bread from the one you'd get in New York. There seems to be a lot of people who were very disappointed with the festival, but I believe this was also year 1 for the festival. So, here's hoping that they learned from all of their mistakes this year and make next year’s event much more organized. The only real downside to the festival that I can think of is that now I'll be searching for places in the Bay Area that would provide me with the same level of quality. So, if anyone knows any good spots in the Bay area for Pastrami Sandwiches, Cheesesteaks, and Hot Dogs. PLEASE let me know.
