It's time for Vue Weekly's 9th Annual Golden Fork Awards.
It'd be great to get some decent participation from Edmonton's dining out crowd to make the results meaningful and to reward those restaurants in Edmonton that are doing something well, as well as inspire those who need to pick up their game...
Check out the article, forward the ballot to everyone you know, and
then vote! http://www.vueweekly.com/articles/default.aspx?i=6218
Besides, there's a nice getaway in the Rockies as a prize as well as 10 runner-up prizes of restaurant gift certificates.
