The Green Eggs & Kegs event invites guests to experience “The Best Party in the ‘Burbs.”. More than two dozen donated Big Green Eggs will fuel the 24 popular local restaurants serving up freshly prepared bites to attendees enjoying the variety of tasting stations. Guests who attended the 2022 event can expect a larger footprint this year with expanded use of the parking lot, along with more live music.
"Last year's event sold out! Due to the enormous success, we are telling everyone to get their tickets quickly. We've added more restaurants, bigger sponsors, and a third live band. The goal is to spread awareness about the Dunwoody area's local businesses and support each other as one, strong community. It will definitely be an afternoon to remember, " says David Abes, owner of Dash Hospitality Group and The Village Dunwoody.
Participating restaurants include BAR{n} booze & bites, Morty’s Meat & Supply, The Funwoody Food Truck, Message in a Bottle, Nick’s Westside, Local Three, Grecian Gyro, Chupito’s Azteca Grille, NFA Burger, Breadwinner Café and Bakery, and Gracious Plenty. The People’s Choice Best Taste award will be presented to the winning restaurant. Last year’s reigning champions, NFA Burger and Grand Champion BBQ will be joined by Secret Pint BBQ this year and the team will be serving sassy sausage over mac n’ cheese.
No festival is complete without live music, and The Village Dunwoody courtyard’s stage is the perfect place for it. The soundtrack of the outdoor event will feature performances from headliner Family Truckster, Sucker Punch and Mike Casey & Jason Martin.
