The First Annual New Orleans Vendy Awards

The 1st Annual New Orleans Vendy Awards

After eight years in New York, and events in LA and Philadelphia, the Vendy Awards are coming to New Orleans. On March 13th, at The Historic French Market, we’ll determine the best street food vendor in New Orleans while raising money for the New Orleans Food Truck Coalition (NOFTC) & Slow Food NOLA

The Vendys are:
An intense cook-off between the best sidewalks chefs in the city.
A festival of respect and gratitude for all vendors and everything they provide us–from your morning coffee (half-and-half, two sugars) to the $2 umbrella when you get caught in the thunderstorm.

A part of The Brooklyn Brewery Mash, a series of cultural events including comedy shows, concerts, and pop-up supper clubs and readings.

A fundraiser to support culinary entrepreneurs and the sustainable food movement
