Plate by Plate 2017 Ticket Giveaway

[UPDATE 2017-07-21: Thanks for playing everyone. I reviewed each post in detail, and I've posted my comments below. We had some pretty creative entries, but unfortunately quite a few people didn't completely follow the directions. Congrats to winner Bryan Liem! And remember, even if you didn't win, you can still get $25 off a ticket using the code PBP25KEVINEATS.]

On the evening of Saturday, August 5th, Project by Project will be hosting its 15th annual tasting benefit, Plate by Plate. PbP is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit centered around issues relating to the Asian-American community, and is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. As always, the tasting will showcase the talents of some of LA's top restaurants, as well as beverages from a variety of leading purveyors. After a successful event at the California Science Center in 2016, this year's benefit will be returning to the venue. To get an idea of what Plate by Plate is like, be sure to check out my report from last year's event. Here's a list of who's coming so far (subject to change, of course):
