Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - If you're looking for an exciting way to spend a beautiful afternoon in Puerto Vallarta, don't miss this Saturday's (March 30) Chili Cook-Off to benefit three children's charities - Busca Un Amigo, Corazon de Nino and Toys for Tots.

The event will be held at the scenic El Rio Bar and Grill in Paso Ancho, just a mile up the beautiful Rio Cuale off the Libramiento. Doors will open at 1 pm and close at 6 pm.

Contestants from 14 restaurants and individuals will compete for trophies as voted by you, the patrons, and a "Chef's Grand Prize" determined by 2 locally prominent chefs. There will be barbecued riblets on hand as well. All you can eat for the bargain price of $200 pesos per person. Tickets may be purchased at the door.

A great musical program is also on tap. Mariachis will perform from 1-3, followed by the Nacho Daddy Band, and a special not-to-be-missed surprise performance.

El Rio Bar and Grill is conveniently located alongside the beautiful Cuale River in Paso Ancho. If coming from the south or El Centro, turn right off the Libramiento just past the bridge and before the new large tunnel. If coming from the north, turn left at the river road past the large tunnel and before the bridge. If traveling by bus, you should take the 04 Blue bus from Old Town (Lazaro Cardenas) to Paso Ancho.

Great food, fun and music promise a good time to be had by all. Don't miss this one!
