Oneida County Tourism is launching an A to Z Food Tour Campaign asking the public for help listing the restaurants and specialties that will be featured.

Sarah Foster, director of communications at Oneida County Tourism, hopes people get creative in choosing dishes because they want to list a dish for each letter of the alphabet.

“We want to inform residents about foods that are beyond the popular chicken riggies and Utica greens – even if we love them. Think more like ‘N’ for One Genny’s Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich or ‘C’ for Cambodian dumplings from Jiaozi 88. We want people to get creative, ”said Foster.

Ideas can be submitted online and will be reviewed by the Oneida County Tourism team. The form requires the name of the favorite dish and the name and location of the restaurant.

The final list will be posted on the Oneida County Tourism website.

People who submit ideas online can win one of two $ 50 gift cards to a local restaurant of their choice.
