E.A.T! – which stands for “Edible, Artisanal, and Tasteful!” was an epicurean adventure at the BB&T center in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Presented by the Broward/Palm Beach New Times and the Florida Panthers, South Florida’s foodies had a chance to sample more than 40 restaurants showcasing their culinary creations. A chef cooking competition was at the center of it all, featuring chef Ryan Martin of 180 degrees vs Nuno Grullon of Cafe Roval. Congratulations to Chef Ryan Martin for winning this year’s competition! It was an amazing event at the BB&T center for South Florida’s foodies!!
