Perfectly timed for light summer suppers, Vancouver Foodster has launched the first Salad Challenge.
Vancouver Foodster has invited restaurants from all over the city to enter their best Salad creation into this challenge, some entered their house recipe and others have created a special Salad just for the Salad Challenge. Each restaurant will be featuring their Salad creation on their menu until July 31, 2016.
During the course of the Salad Challenge, the public are invited to go visit the competing restaurants and order any or all of the Salads in this challenge, then vote for their best salad creation for the People’s Choice award winners. When judging your salads keep these criteria in mind: originality, creativity, uniqueness, traditional, non-traditional, price, value and most importantly taste.
Whilst eating the competing salads, remember to share your experiences on Twitter or Instagram throughout the challenge, tag @vanfoodster and use the hashtag #SaladChallengeYVR to let others see what they’re missing on the challenge.
In addition to the public vote, there will be a panel of media personalities tasting the Salad Challenge competitors to select the Judge’s Choice.
The media judges are:
Zahra Alani, Radio & Television personality.
Weather Anchor at CTV News.
