Think you can handle the heat? We’re looking for people to take part in the Victoria Inn Chilli Eating Challenge from 4pm on Saturday 10th October.
There will be several rounds, with the chillies getting hotter each time. How far you make it is entirely up to you and your ability to cope when things start to get a bit uncomfortable.
The winner will receive a trophy and, perhaps more importantly, a £100 Victoria Inn bar tab.
If you want to take part, send us a message. Alternatively, speak to us at the bar – we’ll add your name to the list.
Keep Colchester Cool‘s Ben Howard will be DJing during the competition. Keeping Colchester cool might prove difficult on this occasion, but he’ll be bringing plenty of heat-related tracks instead.
Spectators are very welcome too, so if eating increasingly hot chillies isn’t your idea of a good Saturday afternoon, you can always come along and watch someone else do it.
The Victoria Inn Chilli Eating Challenge in Colchester starts at 4pm on Saturday 10th October at the Victoria Inn, North Station Road.
If you’d like to take part, contact the Victoria Inn or speak to us next time you’re at the pub.
