During these brisk winter months, Limehouse Produce will once brighten the Holy City by teaming with local bars and restaurants for the 2015 Citrus Celebration.
From now until February 22nd, area restaurants will use the company’s produce to create citrus-based drinks and dishes. After sampling some of the offerings, patrons can go online and vote for their favorite. A panel of judges will visit the top five places from each category and select a winner as well. The online votes and the live judges’ choices will then be compiled and a winner for “Best Citrus Dish” and “Best Citrus Drink” will be chosen.
