Pizza Wars Voting Begins Friday
Indiana’s Kosciusko County is proud to announce the launch of Northern Indiana Pizza Wars! The eight best Pizza Restaurants in the county will go head to head in a bracket style voting contest to decide who has the best Pizza in our county. The voting for Pizza War kicks off Friday, May 15, hosted on the Kosciusko County Convention and Visitors Bureau’s website.
The first round lasts ten days. Following the end of the first round, the next two rounds will take place over the weekend. The second round will be May 28 to 31 and the final round will take place June 4 to 7.
The winner of the best pizza in Indiana’s Kosciusko County will be announced June 7. The winner will then go head to head against the winning restaurants from the other six counties that make up NITDC.
The eight pizzas and restaurants that will be representing the best of our county are: Angelo’s Chicago Style Pizza & Beef, Warsaw, featuring their Chicago Style Deep Dish any way you want it; The Cafe at The Bowling Alley, Warsaw, featuring Bib’s Smoked BBQ Chicken Pizza; Danny’s Sports Bar and Pizzeria (Barbee Hotel Restaurant), Warsaw featuring the Chicago Style Crust “People’s Choice”; Down Under Family Dining, Syracuse, featuring their 16″ Deluxe; Fire N The Hole, Mobile Restaurant featuring the Just What the Doctor Ordered pizza; Frog Tavern, Inc., Syracuse, featuring The Wawasee; Light Rail Village Cafe, Winona Lake, featuring The Carne; Red’s Sweets, Claypool with their Puller Porker.
Let customers’ voices be heard! They can log in to vote each week to make sure their favorite restaurant gets the credit it deserves. Voters can keep checking the website and Indiana’s Kosciusko County’s social media pages and use the hashtag #PizzaWarsNI to follow their favorite pizza.
Most importantly, voters are encouraged to sign in and vote each round for a chance to win the grand prize of a $50 gift certificate to the winning restaurant announced at the end of the competition.
And the competition doesn’t end there! Indiana’s Kosciusko County Pizza Wars is running simultaneously with six other county Pizza Wars as part of the Northern Indiana Pizza Wars project. Northern Indiana Pizza Wars is a joint initiative of the Northern Indiana Tourism Development Commission (NITDC) and its member convention and visitors bureaus in Porter, LaPorte, St. Joseph, Marshall, Kosciusko, Elkhart and LaGrange counties. NITDC is the leading regional economic development authority focusing on sustainable tourism through effective partnerships.
The Northern Indiana Pizza Wars is a follow up from last year’s Burger Wars contest. After 60,000 votes cast, The View Tavern of South Bend was crowned the Burger Wars Champion for all of Northern Indiana.
