After attending the Wing Bowl at Kildare’s last week I received this email from one of the participants who wanted to share a behind the scenes look of this unique food competition.
Growing up outside of the US there are some things you just don’t get exposed to. So, when I had the opportunity to take part in a speed eating contest, I jumped straight onto it. The event was a wing bowl at Kildares West Chester. The rules were simple, one hundred wings, three beers, three persons per team. It sounded simple enough, and thirty wings didn’t sound like all that much extra. But of course appearances are always misleading.

The weather was gorgeous, the food was amazing and plenty of people showed up (I think that’s a bit of an understatement). By all accounts this year’s Chester County Restaurant Festival was a resounding success. Understandably, some of the skeptics would point out that as a sponsor of the festival we have to say good things about the event. Well, as my role model and 3rd grade obsession Lavar Burton always use to say,”You don’t have to take my word for it.”
Here’s what some of the other attendees had to say about the Restaurant Festival:

www.wcdish.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/images-8.jpg” alt=”images-8.jpg” />One of my best friends came over tonight. I haven’t had the privilege of hanging out with him since last year. To celebrate we drove around town, listened to cheesy techno music and stopped at the grocery store to a pint of Ben and Jerry’s.
A bottle of locally made red wine and a pint of Chubby Hubby later we were dancing in my living room. Dancing quickly became jumping and jumping turned into phonebook surfing.
What, you ask, is phonebook surfing? It’s when you put on music really loud and with bellies full of ice cream, you place a phone book in the middle of the room and run and jump on the phone book …

We had nowhere to stay when we crossed the Floyd city limits around 7:30 pm Saturday evening. In search of accommodations we did what anyone else would do. We went to the local Dollar General. The yellow pages had exactly three options under the heading œLodging. The first listing was a motel/senior assisted living center.
