The largest indoor venue for chowing down at the New York State Fair has a new name. 
The International Pavilion has been re-born as the Eatery, hoping to attract visitors who didn’t know the place is filled with food stands.
The name isn’t the only new feature as several new vendors have set up shop, trying to break through with traditionally skeptical Fair diners.
Ironically, the new joints represent several ethnic cuisines, so maybe International wasn’t such as bad moniker after all. Among the rookies are Vietnamese, Mexican, Polish and Canadian fare, along with a sandwich shop. 
Name aside, a sturdy, air-conditioned building full of picnic tables can be a good alternative to outdoor eating.
