23rd Annual Chili Cook-Off ~ Socially Distant & Delicious
Feb. 12-28, 2021
Downtown Ithaca restaurants/takeout will be available, too. This year Chili Cook-Off will be a bit different. Instead of hosting this foodie event on the Commons, participating restaurants will offer their chili and chili inspired items in the restaurants for a 10-period.
Chili Cook-Off will feature dozens of chilis prepared by multiple restaurants from across the region as the restaurants compete for the titles of Best Meat/Overall Chili, Best Vegetarian/Vegan Chili, and People’s Choice Chili.
We’ll have more information available soon at downtownithaca.com/chili-cook-off/
