Falls Church Barbers, Tattoo Artist Face Off In Battle Of Broad Street Food Challenge

FALLS CHURCH, VA — Five barbers and a tattoo artist will trade their hair trimmers and tattoo needles for spatulas as they cook up food for the second Battle of Broad Street.

This returning food competition features barbers from the Neighborhood Barbershop and tattoo artist from Mister Finster's Tattoo creating five dishes in hopes of winning bestselling dish of the day. The Battle of Broad Street will be hosted on Thursday, June 15 from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Harvey's, 513 W. Broad Street, Falls Church, VA.

During the competition, diners can purchase the dishes. The creator of the dish that sells the most will get the dish featured on the Harvey's menu for a month. The person whose dish sells the least will get a tattoo depicting the winning dish.

No matter who wins, the real winner is the Falls Church Education Foundation, which will receive 10 percent of sales that day at Harvey's. The nonprofit raises supplemental funds to support Falls Church City Public Schools.

Along with dishes, the event will feature drinks from Audacious Aleworks and Metro Cellars.
