Taco eating contest coming

Coney Island has its hot dogs. Now Park Slope has its tacos.

On March 18, Barrio will host its first ever taco eating contest.

Inspired by the Mexican restaurant’s popular Monday might all-you-can-eat taco madness, the contest’s only rule is first clean plate wins.

Want to find out how long it will take you to eat an entire Mexican taco fiesta platter? Email request@barriofoods.com to sign up. First place wins a $100 gift certificate.

The contest kicks off at 7 pm. Barrio is located at 210 Seventh Ave. For more information, go to www.barriofoods.com.
