March into Merivale Food Festival

Few years ago the event used to be free to attend, but it is all changed now. So March into Merivale comes at a cost. Entry fee to this year's event is $45 plus booking fee. Quite a significant price jump in five years. So is it worth the entry fee? There are different opinions. Price of admission gets you 8 food and drink tokens, which can be a bit of a lottery. Some restaurant food stalls will take one food token for a sample of their menu, while others may take two tokens per dish.
