The season is upon us! The end of the year holidays seems to come around the corner at full speed. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Boxing Day, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc. That’s a lot of cooking and washing dishes afterwards. Now that more Americans have moved towards having a “holiday experience” all that hard labor goes out the window and families are opting to lean on the culinary creativity of Restaurant Owners and Chefs to create the experience they see in their holiday vision.
Don’t feel like cooking this holiday season. We have some Black owned restaurants that have you covered.
