    Last fall, Columbus Underground hosted its first ever “Best Bites” event — a new series designed to showcase some of the finest food that Columbus has to offer. The launch event featured gourmet burgers from a dozen local restaurants, and it ended up being a huge success, with tickets selling out in advance and 300 attendees participating in the fun. Proceeds from ticket sales also helped to raise $600 for the Local Matters’ Cooking Matters program.

    Today we’re pleased to announce that we’re partnering with our friends at Shadowbox Live to bring back Best Bites: Burgers and kick off the 2015 festival season with even more burgers, more drinks, more entertainment and and an even bigger venue: Brewmasters Gate. On April 23rd, you’re invited to join us at 495 South Front Street in the Brewery District for another celebration of the best burgers in Columbus from 6pm to 9pm. Chefs from restaurants all around town will converge on The Brewery District for one night only for you to sample their best burgers.

    Participating restaurants include Strongwater Food & Spirits, The Crest Gastropub, Ethyl & Tank, Bareburger, Gallerie Bar & Bistro, Street Thyme Food Truck, The Pearl, Star Lanes, The Chintz Room, Harvest Kitchen + Bar, The Pint Room, Luna Burger, Firebirds Woodfired Grill, Hubbard Grille, Max & Erma’s, Cray Eatery & Drinkery, and Paddy Wagon.

    Advance tickets to the event are $30, which includes unlimited burger samples, a commemorative pint glass (while supplies last), a chance to vote on your favorite burgers of the night, a cash bar featuring Crafthouse Cocktails, Riunite Wines, Modelo Especial and Negra Modelo beers, and access to the official after-party taking place at World of Beer Brewery District from 9pm to Midnight. 

    For those looking to make a dinner-and-a-show out of the evening, Shadowbox Live will be showcasing their production of Green Day’s American Idiot at 7:30pm that night with a reduced ticket price for Best Bite attendees for only $10 (normally priced at $25). A bundled ticket ($40) can be purchased online HERE and with seating limited for the show, they’re expected to sell out.

    A portion of all ticket proceeds from Best Bites: Burgers will be donated to Community Kitchen Inc, a local nonprofit that helps to feed the hungry in Central Ohio, through the Columbus Foundations’s PowerPhilanthropy program. A portion of all alcohol proceeds from the cash bar at Best Bites: Burgers will be donated to the Shadowbox Arts Education Program, which assists local students with performing arts learning.
