Providence and Plymouth Pubs Offering Monstrous Food Challenge

PROVIDENCE, RI and PLYMOUTH, MA (WBSM) — A restaurant with locations in Plymouth, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island recently unveiled a new menu, and with it one of the most colossal food challenges in all of New England.

The Plymouth G Pub, located at 101 Carver Road (across from Market Basket), and the Providence G Pub, at 61 Orange Street, have both introduced the “Fame or Shame,” and we’re not quite sure how to describe it.

Is it a sandwich? Actually, it’s multiple sandwiches, all piled together.

Here’s how it’s described on the menu:

“Two leaning towers compiled of four double cheeseburgers stacked between grilled cheese sandwiches, topped with house cheese sauce, applewood bacon, fried onion rings, lettuce, tomato, MOB sauce and four Buffalo chicken sliders set amid one pound of chili cheese fries.”

That's an incredible amount of food, but why is it called “Fame or Shame,” and what is the actual challenge?

If you can finish the entire meal within 30 minutes, you’ll not only get it for free, your name will also be enshrined on the G Pub’s “Wall of Fame.” However, if you don’t finish within 30 minutes, you’ll have to pay for it (it costs $95!) and you will be forever ridiculed on the “Wall of Shame.”

There are a few other rules as well. Only one person can complete the challenge – so no help from friends – and participants must remain at the table for the entire 30 minutes, so make sure you use the restroom before you begin.

If you think you have what it takes to take on this monstrosity, head on over to the Providence or Plymouth G Pub and send a photo of you taking the challenge to us on our app. Better to have someone else drive you though, because after you give this a go, you’re going to want to take a nap on the ride home.
