The Weekly Goodness: May 8th, 2017
Good morning Everett! You look great today! ☀️
Last week we checked out Everett's newest Italian eatery Chianti. Get a load of that complimentary bread! See what we thought of the place in this week's Live in Everett TV.
Got dinner plans tomorrow? Because tomorrow is Live in Everett's first-ever Taco Eating Contest at Mazatlan Mexican Restaurant. There's only 6 spots left, so register today before registration closes. PLUS you get a free $25 Silver Cup gift card for participating. Come on that's a $5 net gain. BTW – Tyler thinks he can eat 20 tacos and has money riding on it.
We don't usually like to take the spotlight off of Everett, but we've got some tickets for Saturday to Upstream Music Fest that we're giving away fo' FREE. Thanks to Everett Music Initiative for the hook up.
You've got 'til MIDNIGHT TONIGHT to enter, so hurry up you lazy dog!
