Episode 516 - The Ultimate Houston Vietnamese Food Draft


Listen Later

On today's podcast episode, it's The Ultimate Houston Vietnamese Food Draft! Listen as Eric, alongside Local Foods Group's Chelsea Thomas, Heights Grocer's Mary Clarkson, Stevie Vu from the Chow-down in Chinatown Facebook group, Isabel Protomartir from the 'Have A Nice Day' AAPI pop-up markets, and Michael Fulmer, who co-founded the Houston BBQ Festival, attempt to craft the best lineup!

The drafters will be selecting a lineup of the following 6 categories: salad/appetizer, entrée, sandwich, soup, Viet-Cajun, and a wildcard item.

The Draft Rules
Rule 1: No drafter may select the same restaurant in more than one category.
Rule 2: Once a restaurant has been selected for a specific category, no other drafter may select it in that same category.   
Rule 3: Snake draft format. The draft order will go one through six in round 1, then go backwards six through one in round 2.
Rule 4: Categories may be selected in any order.
