Turkey and the Wolf did have that black guy that was tall and skinny. Not sure if he's still there, and y'all are right I've never seen another black employee there or at Courtyard



Turkey has or had multiple black workers. In the end, you can only hire from the people who apply to your restaurant.

I will say, It is cringey how they are currently going out of their way to pretend like they care about eating at black owned restaurants. A lot of them just don’t make quality food, it’s not a black or white thing - which will end up being the next issue I’m sure. They need a fair opportunity to make good food

Yep. Just said this in the Bachelor thread. People calling for Bon Appetit to hire people from random African countries to be on their videos and I'm just wondering how many Ethiopians are lined up to be a video personality at BA.

Dude. Thank you.

They released a list of black owned restaurants here in BR. Its all the same style of food, which is home cooking type of food. I'm not above a plate of that food, but lets call it what it is. Melting 2lbs of Velveeta into cooked spaghetti noodles is not exactly culinary genius. Nor is a menu of sides that are just heated canned vegetables with seasoning.

Y'all have seen me go off on people here trying to pretend to be a white guy "in the know" because they go to lesser known black owned joints.

That's the discussion though. Revelator Coffee addressed this in their post from yesterday.
