Win Two Tickets to The Big Cheesy!

You don’t even know what it is I bet, but I also bet you want to go. Because who wouldn’t want to go to an event called THE BIG CHEESY?! It’s big. It’s cheesy. That’s all you need to know.

For all of you nitpickers who need more information, The Big Cheesy is a grilled cheese competition (cue excitement) on March 23rd and 24th. Brought to you by Openhouse Gallery, The Big Cheesy will feature some of NYC’s best sandwich slingers, including returning champion Melt Shop, as well as Milk Truck, Murray’s Cheese, Lucy’s Whey, Sons of Essex, and Tom Colicchio’s ‘wichcraft. And what goes great with cheese? Anything. Beer. Sixpoint tallboys will be on hand to provide some brew to wash down the gooey, cheesy, crunchy, messy…oh my god I’m turning myself on…you get the idea.

Tickets to the Big Cheesy are $25 each for a one-hour time slot (between 12 pm – 7 pm); patrons get one hour to sample each sandwich, then vote for their favorite. Sounds like BIG CHEESY FUN to me! Get your tickets here.
