Best of Folsom 2009

It’s our 7th annual “Best of Folsom” campaign. It wasn’t very long ago that we started out to give our nod of approval to the best places in town. Seven years later and thousands of votes cast, the contest is as popular as ever! Some of this year’s highlights:

• You waited, you responded: It’s official… In-N-Out Burger is a hit! The Southern California fast food chain has been a winner ever since setting up shop in Folsom. They won 3 Best of Folsom awards – Best Fries, Burgers, and Best New Business.

  
  

• New categories: Some new categories this year – Best Vegetarian Food (Mylapore gets the nod), and Best Date Spot (Bidwell Street Bistro). This will be the last year for a few categories as we make room for some new ones next year.

  
  

• Landslide: We have a new mechanism this year – the “landslide” victory. For the races that weren’t even close, we figured to designate them as “landslide” victors in a category… these winners – you more or less can’t go wrong. (These are the selections in orange)

  
  

• Three’s Company: Bidwell Street Bistro and In-N-Out were the biggest winners this year, as the victors of 3 such awards.

  
  

• Best New Road: A couple people nominated Folsom Lake Crossing as the best new road.
