Taste America Local Dish Challenge: Final Standings Update!

Here's a final update on the standings for James Beard Foundation's Taste America® Local Dish Challenge! Chicago still leads, but only by a slim margin. With two days left in the contest, any of the leading cities could still win this one.

If you're late to the game, here's your last refresher: order a "Taste America Local Dish" at one of the contest's participating restaurants, snap it on your phone and upload it to Instagram, tagging your image with #JBFTasteAmerica and the suggested hashtag for your city. After the promotion ends on October 31, the city with the most uploads will receive $10,000 or 10 percent of funds raised nationally, whichever amount is higher, in the form of a donation to a local food charity.

Stay tuned to see who wins!
