It’s back! Riverwalk Burger Battle III returns on Friday, May 11, from 7PM – 11PM at Huizenga Plaza in Downtown Fort Lauderdale. This time 20 Burger contenders will battle for the Best Burger Trophy! Also up for grabs are awards for: Best ‘Burger Joint’ Burger • Best ‘Bar & Grill’ Burger • Best ‘Knife & Fork’ Burger • Fan Favorite Trophy and Burger Nirvana (Perfect Score from at least 2 of the 5 Judges).
