Unfortunately hotels don't work that way. For large groups we need to pre-order food and it is not cheap. The mark-up hotels put on food and beverage is huge.

I have the feeling we all agree that the former way of having some kind of dinner (reception buffet or thelike) at the conference and then head to the BoFs was the ideal solution. If "only" the monetary aspect of the food is what prevents it now, would it be a reasonable option to offer food at the conference for an extra price that each interested attendee has to pay? Maybe it's not possible but personally I'd love to pay, let's say, 20 bucks for it.

Cheers
