Ann Arbor Art Fair
I'm going to the art fair tonight directly after work. Wondering about dinner. I am assuming most places will be packed. Anyone know of any off the beaten path places that might not have a really long wait? Or, does anyone know the quality of food at the fair itself? I cannot do greasy fried foods in this heat without being ill. Is there a pretty decent selection or should we skip eating at the fair?
Thanks!

In case anyone was wondering, the food scene at the art fair was horrible. I don't understand why there couldn't be some top of the line food vendors come in - it seems like it's the perfect venue.

Man, that's sad to hear. I haven't been to the fair in a couple years, but the greek ladies up at the corner of the union used to make a mean gyro. The main street food court used to showcase some local restaurants. I recall Blue Nile having a stand and selling the most delectable meal for around $8. Sad.

I didn't see that stand Charles. And I should mention that I'm not a huge fan of gyros - I did see a stand selling them. There was one place that was doing stir-fry but it looked rather greasy and unappealing. The rest of it was your typical hot dogs, fries, elephant ears, etc. There was one of the local restaurants that had a make-shift patio set up, I can't recall the name and the menu was nothing special.
I wonder why Michigan (metro Detroit) is so behind the times in the food truck scene that seems to be so popular nowadays?

Ann Arbor locals leave town during Art Fair - many establishments actu ally close up shop to escape. That's why the food scene is bad during it. Too bad you missed Mark's Carts during Art Fair http://markscartsannarbor.com/
