Varga Bar's 2nd Annual SuperFowl Wing Event
Varga941 Spruce StPhiladelphia, PAThe folks at Varga think chicken wings and craft beer are the perfect pair... and far be it from us to argue! In celebration of this dynamic dietary duo, Varga is holding its second annual SuperFowl wing event.
This competition pits customers against each other as they prepare and present their very best chicken wing recipes. The competition starts at 6 p.m. and the winner of the first round will move on to compete against Varga owner and chef Evan Turney. The winner will be announced at halftime during the Super Bowl.
Prefer eating wings as opposed to cooking them? No problem! Toss in $5 and you get to taste each competitor's offering and decide who'll move on to face Evan in the final round. The overall event winner will be decided based upon an audience-wide vote.
Interested in competing? Email rich@vargabar.com for more details. May the best wingmaster win! -
