B.Good Newton Offers Free Food For A Year - To The Right Customer

NEWTON, MA — Never get tired of a free meal? Like B.Good on Highland Ave? You could win one every day for a year and test that out, thanks to B.Good. For those who follow the goings on at the restaurant that focuses on sustainable, fresh and wholesome food, they know the drill: The New England restaurant chain is holding its annual contest to find its customer of the year.

The stakes? Not only could you win a B.Good meal every day, but a fancy trip all the way to Boston to work with the chain's chef Tony Rosenfeld on a new meal. Yep. For folks who live in Newton, that trip to Beantown might not be so fancy. But get this: The winner's local restaurant will be named in their honor for a week.

So how can you score burgers and sweet potato fries or quinoa bowls or healthy salads on a daily basis? The Boston-based chain is asking customers tell the company why they love its food.

That's it. Then the company will put it to the general public to vote in February.

Entries – videos, poems or songs, or other examples of why customers like B.Good – will be accepted through Feb. 5. The public will then be allowed to vote online for 24 hours – Feb. 7, through Feb. 8 – and a winner will be chosen on March 4.

"Customer of the Year has been a long-standing tradition for B.Good and allows us to celebrate the people who make us who we are today," said Anthony Ackil, co-founder and CEO of the company. "Every year, I look forward to seeing the unique ways our loyal customers showcase their love for B.Good."

Last year's winning entry was a music video.

B.Good opened in 2003 and now has some 61 restaurants from Virginia to Maine, including New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, as well as locations in Canada and Europe.
