Food Fighters Universe (FFU), is an NFT collection of 10,000 unique tokens that will connect food, NFTs and Web3. Owning a Food Fighters NFT will unlock free food rewards and Web3 perks.
Andy Nguyen, who launched the Bored Ape Yacht Club-inspired restaurant, Bored & Hungry, is one of the groups founders alongside Kevin Seo and Phillip Huynh.
Each NFT purchase will help to develop the world’s first NFT-backed restaurant group, focused on building gathering places in real life (IRL) and the metaverse, while offering utility and experiences for Food Fighters NFT holders.
Food Fighters Universe is the first Food NFT project that will fund the massive expansion of food gathering places in real life and in the metaverse. Allowing for bridging of NFT/Web3 veterans to help gamify and onboard new “normie” communities into the new space.
Each NFT purchase will fund the world’s first Metaverse and IRL (in real life) Restaurant Chain and Gathering Places. 1 Food Fighter NFT = your membership to all special events, rewards, and all Web3 and other IRL perks.
Food Fighters NFTs will grant members access to special events, rewards and perks in Web3 and IRL. That includes tickets and line hopper passes to an annual in-person Food Fighters Festival, along with hidden restaurants created as “Easter Eggs” for the Food Fighter community.
