Eden the Foodie

I am the founder of BlackFoodie. I can't live without hot sauce, berbere or my passport! Bland food is my worst enemy! I love exploring culture through food and am on a mission to expose the world to the amazing flavor and cuisine that comes from the African diaspora. I want to see Black businesses flourish and aim to support them with every bite I take :)

My feelings exactly. The truth is though without government support/ intervention many independent restaurants won’t re-open. Check out the advocacy work @chefkwameonwuachi and many more are doing to save restaurants. 👉🏾Look into 🇺🇸 @indprestaurants or 🇨🇦 @savehospitality.ca

We also want to salute the many restaurants who’ve turned into community kitchens like @edouardojordan restaurant in Seattle, or @roosterharlem in NYC, or @chefmaxhardy in Detroit who’s been preparing meals for the homeless or @zoeadjonyoh @ghanakitchen who is currently raising funds to provide meals to vulnerable communities in London, UK

There are also community organizations who are ramping up their services providing fresh produce for the increase of people in need like @blackcreekcommunityfarm and @foodshareto in Toronto.

Now more than ever, we need to support.

If you’re in a position to do so consider:

👉🏾Donating $ to local food banks & community kitchens

👉🏾 Ordering takeout or gift cards from your local black restaurant, chefs and caterers

🙏🏾
