Some of the Most Popular Foods People Ate at the Outside Lands Music Festival

The 3-day Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park returned again this year with hundreds of thousands of excited attendees, and one thing it did not skimp on was the food offerings. This should not be a surprise, since Outside Lands describes itself as a “gourmet” music festival.

We saw people eating a lot of dishes we wish that our stomachs were big enough to sample, and one thing that seemed to be in a lot of people’s hands were Bini’s Kitchen handmade and virally famed Nepalese Momo Dumplings. Maybe it just seemed that way because they are so visually appealing (orange sauce, big dumpling balls, two rows on a plate), but regardless, attendees were going at them non-stop.

Here are some other dishes that to the TasteTV editors and photographers seemed to be particularly in demand.

Of course if you want to punish yourself, we’ve got the full list of menu items from the festival below.
