Annual Chili Cook Off scheduled Nov. 13

It’s that time of year… time to elect a new Chili Champ of Longfellow!

The Longfellow Community Council (LCC) will sponsor their Annual Chili Cook-Off and Fundraiser at Gandhi Mahal Restaurant, 3009 27th Ave. S., from 5-7pm on Sun., Nov. 13.

The deadline to enter a chili is Thur., Nov. 10. Chili categories will be Spicy, Meat, and Vegetarian, and there will be a Best Overall Winner who will go home with the coveted Longfellow Chili Cook Off Cup, a traveling trophy. Businesses will compete under a separate category.

Ticket prices for the Cook Off are $10/advance and $15/door for adults, $5 for ages 6-12, and free for those 5 and under.

Each ticket includes entry, chili samples, bread, dessert and voting tickets. Each attendee will receive three tickets to vote for their favorite chili(s), so use them wisely! A cash bar will be run by Gandhi Mahal.

This is a family-friendly event. All proceeds raised during this event will go towards Longfellow Community Council’s programs and initiatives in the Longfellow neighborhood. We hope to see you there!

Advanced tickets are now on sale at Gandhi Mahal, as well as online. To enter a chili, contact email bonnie@longfellow.org or call 612-722-4529 EXT 10.
