The Vancouver Foodster Chowder Challenge is starting today March 8 until 31, 2024. What better way to warm up from this chilly weather than a bowl of hot chowder from some of Vancouver favourite restaurants all over Vancouver.
The participating restaurants have entered a new or favourite chowder from their menu to offer patrons during the Chowder Challenge. Expect offerings to be creative and comforting, filled with flavours, seasonings and proteins like seafood, meats or plant-based. The public gets the privilege to go out and try all the entries then vote for their favourite(s) for the People’s Choice Winner. Voting can be once per day until the end of the Challenge March 31st.
As usual for Vancouver Foodster Challenges, there will be a panel of Judges, including myself, trying all of the entries to come up with the Judges’ Choice.
