Here’s everything you need to know about the Mac & Eats booth, including reviews, photos, and our must-trys.

When it comes to our reviews and ratings, we thought it would be helpful if you had a better understanding of our personal preferences (what we like and don’t like), along with if there are any dietary restrictions.

Here’s a breakdown of not only who is doing the reviews, but a little more information about what each of us likes and doesn’t like food and drink-wise.

Shannon (Founder)

  • Likes: Almost everything
  • Dislikes: Beers that taste “stinky,” anything too salty
  • Dietary Restrictions: None

Heather (Editor)

  • Likes: Strong flavors, anything made out of potatoes, white wines, all beers (especially stouts and wheat beers), doesn’t mind sweet (plain fruit is NOT a dessert. Ever.)
  • Dislikes: Things that are too spicy, anything with a bone still in it, cocktails with too much whiskey or tequila (thanks to having too much fun in college), some red wines, most IPAs
  • Dietary Restrictions: Shellfish allergy

Traditional Macaroni and Cheese

A traditional mac and cheese made with herbed Panko bread crumbs.

  • Price: $5.00
  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 2/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Small serving for us, breadcrumbs add nice crunch but overall super bland.
Heather: How do you eff up Mac and cheese? A box of Kraft Dinner would have been better.
Felicia: A bit gummy and boring. Not the highlight of this booth but is maybe a good option for kids (be aware there are panko crumbs on it, though).
Allyson: Possibly a good option for kids.

Cowboy Macaroni and Cheese

Cowboy mac and cheese made with smoked pork belly, brisket burnt ends, pickled peppers, onion straws, and barbecue aioli.

  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 4.5/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Great portion, barbecue aioli is a standout flavor with the cheese.
Heather: The burnt ends are fantastic. So damn tender. Like me. Flavor is strong without being overpowering.

  • Price: $5.00 (6 oz.) / $9.00 (12 oz.)
  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 4.5/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Light and delicious. Would order the larger option.
Heather: WHO AM I? All day, every day IPA.
Felicia: This has a strong lemon flavor, which I liked. It is a bit hoppy (which makes sense as it’s an IPA), but it’s refreshing for an IPA.
Allyson: Wow. I really like this — a lot. Can I get another glass?

Catena White Clay Sémillon-Chenin

This Catena White Clay Sémillon-Chenin is from Argentina.

  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 3.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Super light and flavorful. Goes nicely with the heavier food items at this booth.
Heather: Because the other stuff is so good. It’s not bad. Other stuff is BETTER.

Evolution by Sokol Blosser Pinot Noir

A Pinot Noir from Sokol Blosser winery in Willamette Valley, OR.

  • Price: $6.00
  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 4.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Chilled, light flavor especially for a red, refreshing, liked this a lot.
Heather: Freaking so good. That says a LOT because I don’t love reds. But this is so smooth. Like my legs (new razor last night, IYKYK).
Felicia: I like Pinot Noirs in general, but this one is just okay.
Allyson: I’m not a Pinot Noir fan and I’d pass next time.
