Next Monday, Eater will present the 2013 Eater Awards, our fourth annual celebration of all that's made North America's restaurant world run—and run wild—in the past twelve months. Winners will be selected on both the local and national levels in five major categories. Already readers have voted for Restaurant of the Year, narrowing the field down to PiDGiN, Homer St Cafe and Wildebeest, and Chef of the Year with Secret Location's Jefferson Alvarez, Burdock & Co's Andrea Carlson and Maenam's Angus An in the running.
Now, it's time to find the restaurant that's "So Hot Right Now".
Here's how the voting works across the board: Eater editors have named nominees for each of five major categories. Eater readers will vote, narrowing the nominees to three finalists. From those three finalists, the Eater editorial team will select a winner. Ready to play your part? This poll will be open for 24 hours; voting irregularities will be strictly policed.
