The Zagat Restaurant Survey for New Orleans has gone live. Normally, you’re encouraged to rate restaurants and comment on them with a two-fold carrot. First, if they deem you witty enough, your quote may be used in the blurb on the restaurant. Second, if you rate/comment on enough restaurants and provide your address, you’ll get a free book when it’s published. Probably so you can check to see if confirm you were witty enough to make the book. But is that enough for the premium content provided by people like you? Heck no!

Knowing that you all are dripping with good taste (I mean you’re here) and fountains of knowledge about the local restaurant scene, Zagat approached us with a sweet deal for you. In addition to getting in print and getting a book, they’re going to give you the shot at $100 for Whole Foods. Here’s how it was explained to us:

Each time [you] vote for a restaurant, it’ll be counted as an entry to win the $100 gift card from Whole Foods. The prize will be awarded to the person who writes the most witty, creative and informative review (judged by Zagat).

Additionally, if [you] vote for 10 or more restaurants, [you]‘ll be eligible to receive a free copy of the 2013 guide when it’s published next year (provided we’re given an address).

Just follow this link: https://sites.google.com/site/nolarestaurantblogcontest/ to get started. Just be sure to get on it, as the contest is only open until next Friday, June 29th. Be sure to check their website for the contest’s official rules and other legal stuff.

As part of our full disclosure standards, you should know we aren’t receiving a darn thing for this, just giving you all a chance to win $100 for something you’re probably going to do anyway.
