On that date, the competition at Burger Brawl will be hotter than ever before in its five-year history. Attendees at the annual outdoor bash will not only get to vote on their favorite char-grilled patty in town — they’ll also get to pick the best tortilla treat in the land.
Meet the all-new Taco Takedown.
A dozen of Philly’s best taquerias have signed up to participate, and if you pick up a ticket ($50; advance sales only) you’ll get to taste them all, along with the burgers. At the event you can vote for your favorites and help pick the people’s choice winner, but you can also vote right here and now.
So, whose Philly taco game is the strongest? You have until Saturday, Jun. 25 to let us know.
