Hey, wanna hang out on Tuesday? Join us at a kick-off party for the upcoming Devoured Culinary Festival (Phoenix Art Museum, March 13-14) on Tuesday March 2 at St. Francis restaurant in Phoenix. The party doubles as a cocktail competition being organized for Devoured by azcentral.com and Nightlife Editor Megan Finnerty, who will emcee during the mixology mayhem.

The event costs $10, but you’ll get samples of the competition Finlandia cocktails, being created by nine chefs from Valley restaurants and bars. They’ll battle in elimination rounds until someone mixes up a winner.

EATERAZ’s Rick Phillips and David Tyda will judge (cocktails, not people) along with Camelback Inn’s Trudy Thomas and Metro Brasserie’s Bill DeGroot. Now, Tyda’s been known to make or break bartender’s career with his amazingly refined and infallible palate, so competitors be warned! Plus, he only lives a couple blocks away, so he’ll probably just stumble his ass home.

The event kicks off at 5:30pm. Hope to see you!
