The Second Annual Wilmington Burger Battle is set for Saturday, August 24, from noon to 4 p.m. at Twin Lakes Brewing Company!
A host of restaurants in the greater Wilmington area—including, so far, 2 FatGuys, BBC Tavern and Grill, Catherine Rooney’s (Newark), Ernest & Scott Taproom, Home Grown Café, Restaurant 55, Redfire Grill Steakhouse and Union City Grille (last year’s People’s Choice Burger winner)—will throw down again at this outdoor, rain-or-shine charity event, presented by the Kenny Family Foundation. Event proceeds support the Ministry of Caring’s Emmanuel Dining Room, which helps alleviate the immediate needs of Delaware’s hungry with over 180,000 nutritious meals served at no cost and with no questions asked.
In 2012, 400 people attended the 2012 event to place their votes for People’s Choice Burger, with the event raising over $4000 to fight hunger.
Battle co-founder JulieAnne Cross noted, “It’s hard to top a success like last year, but we are going to try. We have at least one restaurant coming from over an hour away to join the Battle!” She adds, “We would be thrilled to double our 2012 donation to the Ministry of Caring, so that the Emmanuel Dining Room’s impact on Delaware’s hungry can be even larger.”
Get your tickets to this limited-capacity tasting event, which include food, beer tastings, soft drinks and music, here! For more information, visit the event website or follow along on Facebook.
