Co-feast-o-cratted one in Ponte Alto at a site borrowed from Storvik- the I 
Pugni event.  Pre-paid, it was $9/person total.  Feast ran about $6.25/person, 
with three removes of meat (stew, meat pies, chicken) and two veggies for each 
remove, salad, bread, cheese, two kinds of butter, and a marzipan desert 
remove.  I don't know how Caer Maer's costs run, but that's the DC metro area 
for you....I think it pretty decent for the price, but then I used my genetic 
haggling advantage when buying food...  ;-)
