A dozen Mitchell eateries are vying for the designation of top restaurant in town. Written By: Nick Sabato | ×
Stakes don’t get any higher than a 3-foot golden spoon, encrusted with diamonds.
That will be the prize as a dozen Mitchell-based restaurants and eateries duke it out in the Mitchell Chamber of Commerce’s Restaurant Rumble from Jan. 27-Jan. 31. Each location has created a “Restaurant Rumble Special” and the public has a chance to decide the winner by posting on Facebook.
The Chamber held its first edition of the Rumble in June and received 60-70 votes. As the food service industry not only looks to offset challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, January and February is typically the slowest time of the year as folks hunker down during the cold weather. So, Chamber event coordinator Jared Indahl decided to tweak an idea stemming from the annual Sioux Falls Burger Battle.
