Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.
