Our first time experiencing La Festa was last year. It was really an enjoyable time and we had a…read morelot of fun trying different food from different stands. This year we decided to try a plain slice from every stand that offered pizza and well... we couldn't really tell we were at an ITALIAN festival. Almost every stand only offered the "old forge" style pizza, and I don't think any of them should. More than half of the old forge style squares were cafeteria quality at best and even worse. The better of the bunch didn't exceed Ellio's Frozen Pizza quality at the best either. Here are our rankings of each stand from best to worst. Luigi's Pizza 7/10 Lupo Russo Woodfired Pizza 6/10 Novello's Pizza 5.5/10 Electric City Pizza 5.2/10 DaVinci Pizza 4.5/10 Roseanne's Pizza 4/10 Buona Pizza 3.4/10 Arcaro & Genell's 2/10 Calarusso's Pizza 2/10 Arcaro's the Next Generation 1/10 Capone's 1/10 Carmella's Italian Deli & Pastry 0/10 Now that is the listing for a plain slice of pizza. Carmella's may have the worst square of pizza with it being as cold as a leftover slice in the fridge, but they were bangin for pastries. Pumpkin cannolis, normal cannolis, pastries galore, they had the sweets down. And going off that point, I believe this festival is a hotspot for sweets, italian ice, funnel cakes, cannolis, lobster tails, etc. The problem with this event is the mundane options from stand to stand. Almost every stand had the same options as their neighbor. The ones that had unique menu options like the garlic knot sliders had the longest lines. Almost every stand offered basic pastas, basic pizza and basic pastries. There was very few "authentic" food options like seafood salads, pestos, or braised veal shanks. Sadly, the most popular stands didn't offer italian foods. Like Chef Von and Mom serving burgers and BBQ, had a line from the start of the festival all the way up to the end. Along with the roasted corn stand, you couldn't walk 5 minutes without seeing someone with a corn on the cob. I do think this festival is turning into more of a dessert fest than a true italian festa. I personally would rather see every stand offer italian options to stay true to the "La Festa" name, instead we are starting to see more and more "fair" food stands like fried oreos, funnel cakes, and whoever can afford to buy a slot. Overall I'd say to come for the desserts, garlic knot sliders, and live music. Just bring your walking shoes, and be ready to slide in and between crowds of people. After trying the sad pizza here, we decided to go to an actual flavorful pizza joint, Scranton Pizzeria. Shout out, great flavor for a decent price unlike at this festival!

Look, it was completely accidental that I found out about this festival and I dont know what god to…read morethank but this was the best thing that could ever have happened on a trip to Scranton. I lived on the east coast for over 20 years - mostly in Boston and NY, but I then moved to Chicago and Louisville. And while I love those places there is absolutely no "Italian" food to speak of. I didn't realize what a deficit I had been in until I saw what was offered here. Fresh cannoli, eggplant parmigiana pizza, WHITE PIZZA (IYKYK), sausage and peppers, beef sandwiches, and the thing that really brought me to my knees - tomato pie. For those that dont know, tomato pie is a thick slathering of tomato sauce on a thick piece of dough, and a bit of parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. It is so simple, yet SO GODDAMNED DELICIOUS. I remember having it all the time as a kid and when I moved to Chicago people thought I was crazy when I asked about it. They thought I was looking for that elementary school pizza that is cut into squares. That stuff is NOT the same and when I saw real! tomato! pie! here I threw my wallet at them and said take my money. Now before you think I was here simply to gorge myself and be rolled out like Violet Beauregarde in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory you would be correct, but also there was music, and entertainment, and the people watching was elite. I plan on returning every year until I die. Thank you for giving me my fix, La Festa, you have no idea how badly I needed it!

So decided to go to bacon feast this year in Easton,PA and when I say it didn't disappoint. I read…read morea lot of people last year saying THREE OAK HAS the BEST Bacon burger. So i got the family and we got there at 9am which was perfect timing even though it started at 10am lol. The line was short but if you wait till like 10:30 the line was around the block ! Yes we try to go back for another round of burgers lol but line was too long lol. NOW I DONT eat burgers I like cheese burgers lol but this burger here was just mouth watering amazing and I'm not just saying that my 8rld who is so picky about what's on his burger . He doesn't like mayo or onions or any sauce besides bbq sauce and ketchup lol. This kid pretty much ate my whole burger and half of my husband lol needless to say he enjoyed every moment of it the way we did. $15 the most I've ever spent on a burger lol.

'The Peckville House' as it's known around these parts is a must-see if you're in the area! It's…read morekinda mind-blowing! It was featured on ABC's 'Great American Light Fight' and one can certainly see why! It's actually two houses that decided to decorate together! There's not one inch left untouched! You can usually walk through the yard to the back where there's even more lawn decor, towering trees, and Santa and his reindeer flying overhead! This year it was closed but you can still take a drive around back! Don't forget to look to your right also! There you will find a Halloween display! So fun! This is definitely worth the trip if you're within 30 mins. It's close to Montage Mountain if you happen to be in the area skiing or tubing. It also goes hand in hand with many other holiday attractions in the neighborhood! You can certainly just drive by if getting out isn't your thing. There is a photo booth picture op but I think taking photos in front of the house is better. Fantastic! Such a treat to the community! It's so touching to witness the energy and work that goes into making others happy during this time...of year and in life in general. Photos DO NOT do this place justice! It's massive!

Needless to say, we purchased 3-day camping tickets back in December the first three minutes they went on sale, and all had a killer weekend! The inaugural Mysteryland USA festival featured ten combined stages/areas stages with a Sunday School 3-stage mini-fest going on all weekend. A Friday night pre-party hosted by Nicky Romero was available to those with Nomad weekend camping passes, and Saturday/Sunday set times ran from 1pm all the way till 2am both days. Steve Aoki closed out the main stage on Saturday and Kaskade did the honors on Sunday, but from open to close, our day was jam-packed with killer sets both days, and plenty of exploring and dancing all around. A+ on stage design, sound, lighting, and of course, the talent! The healing garden, complete with yoga and other cool stuff added some well-needed relaxation/rejuvenation to an otherwise high-energy weekend, and there were plenty of (albeit REALLY pricey) food options. Best of all, the campgrounds provided solace just a short walk away from the party! I'm grading on a curve since this is their first time here in the states, but there's a short list for improvement: 1 - Birdie Bucks - Yes, the festival was cashless, with all purchases scanned from your wristband, but you could only purchase "Birdie Bucks" at select locations, and at the "exchange rate" of $10 USD for 9 Birdie Bucks. They claim to refund unused bucks after the festival, but then deduct a $5 service charge, so unless you want to lose money, you need to be planning & doing math so as to use all your wristband funds...and who the hell wants to do that at a festival?! Compound that with the fact that the entire system went down for a few hours, paralyzing all purchases, and you've got reason to reconsider the rationale for the system. ...Fortunately, I found a workaround to the leftover Bucks situation - Go to the merch shop (which accepts BOTH cash and Birdie Bucks), make a purchase, deplete your wristband balance first, then pay the balance in cash. 2 - Water refill stations - located dangerously close (read: inside) the outhouse area causing even more congestion, with not nearly enough pressure to fill up those camelbaks. Here's where they could take a page from Electric Zoo or EDC and have dedicated high-pressure water refill stations manned by volunteers to keep the line moving and the crowd spread out. All in all, in my mind, ID&T, the Mysteryland organizers did a terrific job their first year, and I hope that the Bethel Woods organizers feel the same so we can party on again next Memorial Day weekend!

Do I really want to reveal the mystery that is Mysteryland? As much as I want to keep this place a…read moresecret, hidden away for no one else to discover, I have to shout from the rooftops just how amazing this festival is. 1) The Logistics - Getting in, out, and around is EASY! Having been to many other festivals where just parking your car is a nightmare, Mysteryland had it all figured out. The little roads around the fest took a beating with heavy traffic but it was nothing like Woodstock back in the day I'm sure. The bathrooms were kept extremely clean at all times. I never had issues with toilet paper or disgusting porta-potties. 2) The People - Everyone was so nice and respectful. The staff were always wishing for us to have an amazing time. I loved the vibes here! 4) The Music - A nice selection of genres from hip top and trap to dark techno and everything in between. The sound was amazing! 5) The Stages - They were so perfectly placed. It was easy to go from stage to stage in 5 minutes. I saw so many artists in one day, I was so surprised! The design of the stages is so unique and each has their own vibe. With a festival that is not sold out like Mysteryland, getting to the front of each stage is an easy task. Where you would expect people to be sardines rammed up against the rail, it is the complete opposite. I vowed to never go front row at a show again after recieving many bruises after Steve Aoki in Toronto. Well here I was, front row at Claude Von Stroke and I had a good foot around me to dance and enjoy myself. I was never shoved or pushed once the entire weekend. 6) The Camping - Camp sites were huge and spacious. The Plaza Central with shops, food, and activities stayed open 24/7 which was a big plus. The general store had everything from underwear to extra tents and sleeping bags. 7) The History - This is where WOODSTOCK HAPPENED!! That is probably the most amazing thing about all of this. The hill we climb each day to go to the festival is where thousands of people stood to watch some of the greatest acts to ever live. The museum on site is very well done and can bring a tear to your eye. So much emotion in one place. Music really does bring everyone together. I'll be back Mysteryland! As long as you are around, I will be coming to visit!!

I can't believe that this is held in a conservative county and people aren't allowed to carry. Yet…read morethere are serious security concerns at this county fair. The right side wasn't being checked at the entrance. There should be a person checking with a metal detector. There should be security as well, besides that person with the metal detector. It is wide open for a person to come in there and shoot up the place. I literally tested it. I went back to my car to grab my handgun and came back and guess what? No one checked me. No one even saw that I walked through the entrance. Immagine that! Mind you there was an old woman and a young girl at that entrance and women are usually oblivious, and don't have any situational awareness at all. But I digress. Are conservatives really pro 2A? Come on guys, you need to let people carry. This was very disappointing. There were only two sheriffs I saw in the whole fair that were actually carrying. One old dude had a six shot revolver. Which is pretty sad, especially in these modern times. The other one had a Glock 19, which was a little better. Both were in clustered one area of the entire fair. Neither had rifles at their disposal. I don't know what's up with all the lax security but this was terrible. Maybe just maybe they are trying to appease the ghetto crowd that's coming in from New Jersey or New York where they are afraid of guns. This should not be a thing. Do better with security or at least let people carry. Other than security, this fair wasn't that great. The rides were meh. The people running the rides were ghetto and non English speaking. It really wasn't that exciting and the food and drinks were expensive. All in all, it wasn't really worth going to this, besides the fact that they wouldn't allow you to carry and strip you of your right to self preservation. Anyways, I will end with this. If a place has lack security much like this place and they don't allow you to carry, do carry because it is your duty as an American citizen to protect yourself and your fellow American citizens, even if it will hurt the feelings of the people there that run this sad event or the 3rd world country invaders, you are an American act like it.
