Do your friends ask you where they should eat on the weekend? Think you would be the best judge of NYC's amazing street food? Now's your chance!
The Vendys (aka the "Oscars of Street Food") have asked us to help them pick a local foodie to join this year's judging panel. Prior judges include Gayle King, Alex Guarnaschelli, Adam Richman, Colin Quinn, Pat LaFrieda & more!
How to Enter:
Between 7/3/15 - 7/24/15, submit a photo of your favorite street food tagged with #VendyCitizenJudge on Instagram or Twitter. There is no limit to the number of submissions, so go out there and eat all your favorite street food this summer! For full contest details, visit the Vendy Awards website.
12 runners up will receive tickets to the the Vendys on Sept 12th, 2015, each handpicked by us right here at Gothamist! The cherry on top? The final winner will be part of the official judging panel as the Vendy Citizen Judge! The Citizen Judge winner will also receive one free year subscription to Squarespace to kick start his or her own personal blog—perhaps starting with documenting the ultimate experience at the Vendy Awards?
For updates on the contest and to see if you're a finalist, sign up for the Gothamist Weekly Digest—good luck!
This sweepstakes is part of a promotional partnership with the Vendy Awards.
