In celebration of America’s most watched game, Kings Food Markets in Old Greenwich is hosting a “Taste of Game Time” event, welcoming Chef Rui Correia of Douro Restaurant on Saturday, February 2nd from 1pm to 4pm. Chef Rui will treat Kings’ shoppers to tastes of Douro, as well as some of his favorite game time food. Shoppers will also have the opportunity to sample several of Kings’ unique products and offerings, as well as pick-up their gourmet orders from Kings Football Catering Menu.
Chef Rui, who has been featured several times on the Today Show, has worked with culinary legends such as Bobby Flay, Danny Meyers and Alfred Portale. While his primary focus is Portuguese and Mediterranean cuisine, Chef Rui has been known to tailor his menu to the taste buds of Americans, offering a unique combination of ingredients and flavors that are sure to shine as he prepares the perfect Super Bowl crowd pleasers.
Kings will also be sampling many of its unique products and offerings, including Calavo Guacamole and Hummus, Rosa Mexicano Salsa, Skinny Pop Popcorn, Tyrrells Potato Crisps, Terrapin Ridge Farms Dips, Fentimans Soda and Tonnino Tuna.
In addition to sampling, shoppers who attend Kings’ Taste of Game Time event can enter to win the “Dine Out or Stay In Mexican Style” sponsored by both Kings and famed New York City restaurant Rosa Mexicano. This sweepstakes offers shoppers a chance to win dinner for two at one of their three NYC locations, as well as their full line of signature salsa and a Kings gift card.
To round out the day, as part of Kings’ Act Against Hunger initiative, Kings Old Greenwich will host its first “Super Bag” food drive event. During this food drive, consumers can purchase a “Super Bag”, which contains some of the most-needed food items. Each bag purchased will be donated to Neighbor to Neighbor, a local non-profit that collects clothing and food for people with emergency needs in Greenwich, Stamford and Port Chester. The “Super Bag” will retail for approximately $10.00, and consumers have the option of either buying pre-packed bags or creating their own bags with items they’d like to purchase.
