Simple.OData.Client in .Net

I am working with an application that will call OData Service. I tried the Simple.OData.Client but I can't get it working..

Here is the code that I try

var client = new ODataClient("http://packages.nuget.org/v1/FeedService.svc/");
var packages = await client.FindEntriesAsync("Packages?$filter=Title eq 'Simple.OData.Client'");
foreach (var package in packages)
{
    Console.WriteLine(package["Title"]);
 }

I get this error

Error 1 The 'await' operator can only be used within an async method. Consider marking this method with the 'async' modifier and changing its return type to 'Task'.

This is even simpler. We need SimpleQuery method, since we cannot add the async keyword to the Main or any entry point methods.

    static async void SimpleQuery()
    {
        var client = new ODataClient("http://blahb...lah.svc/");
        try
        {
            var packages = await client.FindEntriesAsync("Products");
            foreach (var package in packages)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(package);
            }
        } catch (Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Simple Query " + e);
        }
    }
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Press Enter when the job is completed");
        SimpleQuery();
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

using System;
using Simple.OData.Client;

namespace ODataClient
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {   
            new Manager().GetData();    
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace ODataClient
{
    public class Manager
    {
        private readonly Simple.OData.Client.ODataClient client;

        public Manager()
        {
            client = new Simple.OData.Client.ODataClient("http://packages.nuget.org/v1/FeedService.svc/");
        }

        public void GetData()
        {
            try
            {
                IEnumerable<IDictionary<string, object>> response = GetPackages().Result;

                foreach (var package in response)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(package["Title"]);
                }

            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(e);
            }
        }

        private async Task<IEnumerable<IDictionary<string, object>>> GetPackages()
        {
            var packages = await client.FindEntriesAsync("Packages?$filter=Title eq 'Simple.OData.Client'");    
            return packages;

        }
    }
}
