DXF Challenge - Weekly Recap (July 23rd - July 29th)

The DXF Challenge is our way to inspire Detroiters to experience the bars, restaurants & cafes on our DXF’s checklists through Instagram! Every time a challenger visits a bar or restaurant, they tag @WeKnowDetroit with a picture of them enjoying something delicious, using the hashtag #DXFChallenge. And you can too!

Here’s our #DXFChallenge weekly recap, featuring some of the latest stops from this week’s  top 10 #DXFChallengers!

Great shot at Taqueira El Rey, Kelsey! That chicken didn’t stand a chance!

I was so hungry, I only remembered to take a picture after helping polish off a whole chicken with @lord0ftime and @galtsgomjabbar @taqueriaelrey #DXFChallenge #itsonlikepokemon #49
