El Chingon’s Insane Food Challenge Relay Race

Who says you can’t play with your food? Not us, and definitely not El Chingon! This badass Mexican joint in the heart of the Gaslamp is about to turn dining into an extreme sport with their insane food challenge relay race. It’s one foodie adventure you won’t want to miss.

Food Challenge Relay Race El Chingon San Diego

Tacos, Tequila, and Hot Wheels… Oh My!

Teams of two will be racing against the clock, tackling a wild obstacle course of tacos, shots, and… Hot Wheels? Yep, you heard that right. It’s like your childhood dreams collided with your adult appetites, and we’re here for it.

The best part? Registration is totally free. Just hop online and secure your spot—your taste buds (and competitive spirit) will thank you.

El Chingon San Diego

Feast Like a Champion

Whether you’re in it to win it or just there for the vibes, El Chingon’s got you covered with their mouthwatering menu. We’re talking rolled tacos that’ll make your abuela proud, enchiladas that are basically edible hugs, and a Baja fish burrito that’ll have you dreaming of beach days.

And let’s not forget the liquid courage. Sip on their Border Crossing Fruit Cart cocktail—it’s like a fiesta in a glass. Or try the Zapata if you’re feeling fancy. These drinks are the perfect way to celebrate your victory (or soften the blow of defeat).

See you there!

So, gather your most food-obsessed friend, practice your sprinting, and get ready for a Sunday Funday like no other. Win or lose, you’ll walk away with a full belly and some legendary stories.

Mark your calendars for Sunday, August 18. The action kicks off at 4 PM, but early birds can start checking in at 3:30 PM. May the best (and hungriest) team win!

El Chingon is located at 560 Fifth Avenue, San Diego. More info can be found here.

See you there, San Diego!
