Charlotte Food Fight is a food truck competition that is also a fundraiser. It takes place Saturday, May 6th, 2017, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Stumptown Park in Matthews.
This year, 20 local food trucks will compete in 3 categories, including Chef’s Choice, Mystery Ingredient, and People’s Choice. This year, the Mystery Ingredient is being provided by Magnolia Coffee.
Charlotte Food Fight works hard to keep everything CLT local. All the trucks are local. The mystery ingredient is local. The music, from Laura Rabell, School of Rock, and Caroline Keller Band is local, the beer is local from D9, including 2 event-only special beers. There will also be a vendor village with 20 or so local craftsman.
Guests will be able to try food from a bunch of trucks. Each truck will have only two or three dishes, and the servings will be taster’s portions. Nothing will be priced over $3. That will give people a chance to eat from several trucks and then vote on their favorite.
Charlotte Foot Fight donates 100% of everything back in to the community to help with initiatives and charities. This year, funds will go to Different Heroes, a local charity that that provides 3D printed hands for kids with limb deficiencies from birth defects.
