Flicks and Food

Contests

At Flicks and Food, we realize life is always like High School. There are the smart kids, then there’s the popular kids.

The smart kids do well academically, they write beautiful essays, finish first in the science project and belong to various clubs.

The popular kids might write essays that make the smart ones cringe, but because they’re popular, they’re going to be Homecoming King or Queen anyway.

We’d like to address the Flicks and Food competitions to glorify both personalities!

Since Flicks and Food is under new ownership and trying to revamp the site, we’d like to get as many people to visit as possible. Which is why we’re running a popularity contest.

Here’s how it works:

Go out and eat somewhere. You don’t have to make a special trip. Most people eat out at least once a week anyway, so while you’re there, take a picture of your food. Preferably before you start eating it… When you get home, or right there if you’re inclined, write a post about your experience. Tell us how it was. Tell us what you ate. Tell us about the service. We want to know all the details. Then, tell all your friends to go and check out your review. Tweet it out. Facebook it. Use all the social media at your disposal. Tell all your friends to go and vote for your review. At the end of the month, whoever has the most votes for their review will win a prize. We haven’t decided what yet, but it’ll probably be a meal somewhere great.

The second competition is for the nerds. Those people who may not have 5000 twitter followers, but who can write beautifully and eloquently and make me feel like I’m right there with you in the restaurant. Same deal as above, take pretty pictures, tell us about your experience, good or bad. Be descriptive. If I can taste the food you’re describing, you’re on the right track. We want quality writing here at Flicks and Food, and we’re going to reward it. The writer with the best written review will also win a prize.

We feel it’s important to recognize both contributors. We want lots of traffic, but we also want quality work. So go forth, eat and be merry. Then tell us, and your twitter followers about it.
