I took my family to the Strawberry Festival this last weekend and over all it was very enjoyable.
However I was not impressed with the Strawberry Shortcake at all. In fact I thought it was awful. The shortcake was dry and stale, the strawberries were real fresh, but they didn’t have any juice (cream) on them.
I asked for extra wipped cream on top and I am glad because it would have been noting but a bowl of strawberries without it.
On top of that it was the only stand that was selling anything strawberry.
They also said that all of the vendors had “made by hand” products. The place was filled with commerical products.
Overall the festival rated a 7 in my book.
