NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Join us for a Dumpling-Devoted Day on Saturday, October 18^th 12pm-5pm at East River State Park located in Brooklyn, NY! The event is located next to the weekly Smorgasburg, a popular weekend pastime for NYC foodies. Witness a record-breaking "Dumpling Eating Contest", a giant dumpling cutting ceremony, a walking Dumpling mascot, food/drinks, special performances, raffle draws (Grand Prize of iPad!) and much more! No ticket purchase necessary. 

Competitive eaters from across the country and everyday residents gather at the 11th Annual Chef One Dumpling Eating Contest, as they attempt to upset the record of 90 dumplings in two minutes! Current record is held by competitive eater Molly Schuyler, a mother of two that has been taking the competitive eating world by storm. Schuyler's records include a 72 oz. steak in 3 minutes, 9lb burrito in 4 minutes, etc. Record-holders of both divisions will be returning to defend their titles and to hopefully set another record! One man and one woman will receive a grand prize of $1,100; in honor of our 11^th anniversary. Second and third place winners will win $600 and $300 respectively.  

All proceeds benefit Food Bank For New York City. Food Bank has served for 30 years as the city's major hunger-relief organization working to end food poverty throughout the five boroughs. The day of activities is hosted by Chef One along with local sponsors.
