Hi Magdalena,

Two things...

I am not from CA but from Cda. Sorry forthe confusion. While food prices
are considered higher in Canada than in the States (Wegmans commercials
kill me), I perhaps misguided you in what I said. When I said feasts are
$10-12 I meant cost for the populace, again my apologies for that. I can
budget (for a normal feast) approx. $6-7/per head.  Since a profit is
usually expected on feast and the bar (our sites are always 99.9% wet) we
tend to price high. There isn't a great complaint heard within our borders
but from what I understand this is high for the rest of the known world.
