ACT in Faith of Greater West Chester has revealed the four restaurants that will compete at its annual cooking competition, which is returning for a seventh year in a row.

“Chef’s Best” will be held on Thursday, March 22 from 6-9 PM at the West Chester University Alumni & Foundation Center.

Last year’s champion, Mercato Ristorante and Bar, will defend its title against Bar Avalon, Saloon 151, and The Social: Southern Scratch Kitchen and Bar.

At Chef’s Best, guests will enjoy generous specialty food samples, then vote for their favorite dish from four of West Chester’s finest restaurants. Chefs will serve up their favorite menu items, as they compete to unseat Mercato, the 2017 winning menu of which included Cream of Asparagus Soup with a Mascarpone Drizzle Topped with Crabmeat, and Short Rib Sliders Topped with a Light Creamed Horseradish Sauce.

“This promises to be the fiercest – and tastiest – competition yet,” said Denise Antonelli, ACT in Faith Board President and a partner at Gawthrop Greenwood, the lead sponsor of the event. “As Chef’s Best grows in popularity throughout the area, more and more restaurants want to vie for the title. It’s a win for the competitors, and for ACT in Faith.”

All proceeds support ACT in Faith, an interfaith organization that seeks to empower un- and under-employed West Chester residents to stabilize their households and build toward sustainability.
