When: Thursday, November 15th from 6pm – 9pm
Where: The Tiki Bar at Crane’s, 82 Gleason St., Delray Beach, FL 33483
What: 7th annual BEST BITE Restaurant Competition
About 250 hungry patriots attended the annual event in 2017 in which seven local eateries competed for the prestigious title of BEST BITE FOR VETS. Tim Finnegan’s Irish Pub in Delray Beach, which finished in second place in 2016, won the popular vote last year, edging out three-peat winner Caffe Luna Rosa, with Zorba’s Taverna coming in third. The competing restaurants at 2018’s restaurant “bite-off” will be announced in early fall. This event also will include a special tasting of exciting beers and ales provided by Saltwater Brewery.
The cost to attend BEST BITE FOR VETS is only $25 per person, which will include one drink ticket, a free “chance to win” ticket for special gifts, and a token to use for voting to select the winning restaurant. Every time a person buys a drink (alcoholic or not) from either of the two popular tiki bars at Crane’s, he/she will receive another voting token. At the end of the event, the restaurant with the most voting tokens will be declared the popular winner.
Funds raised at this event will be split evenly between:
+ Project Holiday, which supports local families who have loved ones serving in the armed forces around the world.
+ HOW Foundation of South Florida, which increases to increase awareness about the medicinal benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) and raises supplementary funds for helping wounded warriors and other individuals receive treatment for HBOT indications not typically covered by insurance.
