Calling all our plant-based readers (or those curious about eating vegan), get ready to enjoy new local food offerings during the month of July.

Enter: The inaugural Chattanooga Vegan Chef Challenge, where local chefs will compete for the most creative + delicious plant-based menu options.

These month-long competitions are brought to you by the global nonprofit Vegan Outreach. So how does it work? It’s as easy as eat, go, and vote.

The challenge will begin on Monday, July 1, and run through Wednesday, July 31. Folks have the month to head to the participating restaurants to try out the dishes + vote online for their favorites.
