THROW DOWN! Join Slow Food Austin for Austin's first-ever foodie Quiz Bowl on August 14, 2011 at the Highball. You think you know food? Compare your knowledge with Austin's hot shot foodie fanatics as they battle it out to determine Austin's uber team of Food Geeks, answering hundreds of foodie puzzlers devised by the Austin American Statesman's food columnist Addie Broyles. 

The fast-paced, ruthless competition will feature question categories on food history, cheese, pop culture, alcohol, food artisanry, and foodie trends. Enjoy exceptionally toothsome treats from some of Austin's best local restaurants, cocktail specials, and a half-time event starring champion butcher Bryan Butler of Salt & Time. Bryan will break down a pig carcass and the cuts will be auctioned off in true Texas style.

All this in the trendiest bowling alley cum bar in all of Texas. Where else would you like to spend a hot August afternoon? Did we mention the door prizes and raffle?
