It’s funny… I moved here for awesome stuff like this (food, movie events, concerts, etc.), but now that I live here, I can’t afford that stuff. Because I live here.

@Gregalor: I didn’t move here, but I totally feel ya. It would be nice to have $75 to spend on food tasting. **sigh**

Seriously guys! I am with you on this. I don’t know if it’s funny or just plain pathetic that I’d consider moonlighting only to have a bit more pocket money for upscale vegan restaurants around Los Angeles that I totally can’t afford right now. Hehe.

I’ll be going. $75 is a small price to pay (and I’m shit broke) to taste this stuff. With everything organic and days of design and preparation I think this is a steal.
