The votes are in, and here are the winners for the 2025 West Side Nut Club Fall Festival “Best of the festival” food booths! There are so many great items to eat on Franklin during the Fall Festival, that it’s always hard to choose winners. But…we have to!
Golden Acorn 1st Place
Walk Off Chop
Golfmoor Baseball Booth #95
This is the 3rd time this item has taken first place. It’s a thick pork chop on a stick. The flavor comes from the the secret ingredients in the seasoned batter.

Golden Acorn 2nd Place
Pizza Mac
Booth #136 Evansville Rescue Mission
Booth #136 Evansville Rescue Mission
This is a new item this year and it is fantastic! So fantastic in fact, our Pete Olson ate the entire thing and on the last booth when we were all so full we were ready to burst!

Golden Acorn 3rd Place
Stuffed Pepper Soup
Booth #8 Eagles View Church
Stuffed Pepper Soup loaded with cheese and sour cream. Outstanding home made hearty dish with an amazing flavor. One of today’s top picks by our judges.

Best New Item
Grasshopper Chocolate Mint Brownie Sundae
Booth #48 Salem Church of Heusler
Probably the prettiest thing we sampled on Franklin this year. And the flavor didn’t disappoint either. A perfect brownie, covered in thin mint ice cream and chocolate.

Best Dessert
Dubai Chocolate covered strawberries
Booth #126 Building blocks Childcare Services
An enormous syringe of Dubai Chocolate, and you actually get that much and can keep the syringe! The crunchy pistachio “Khafti” really makes this as does the marriage of the chocolate, strawberries and the khafti!
