Black-Owned Restaurants
At Postmates, one way we amplify Black voices is by featuring Black-owned restaurants from around the country. The food is amazing and so are the stories. Check them out:
It's all in the family for Anna Phelps, the owner of [Annaâs BBQ]( in Atlanta. Phelps learned her pit-master skills from her grandparents, and the results are perfectly smoke-kissed meats with all the right Southern sides. Now her restaurant spot is known across the city as a go-to for top-notch barbecue.
What started as a side business for The Big Man (William "Chip" Brown) while he was studying to be a physician turned into a main gig with sweet rewards. The cupcakes at [Big Man Bakes]( in LA come in a ton of flavors, from Red Velvet to Caramel Appleâand they can be ordered mini or XL for all sorts of cravings.
In Nashville, [Jamaicaway]( doesnât stop at amazing Jerk Chicken. Or Jerk Salmon. Or Jerk Vegan Chickân. They also have a long list of scratch-made sides including Fried Plantains and Cheesy Mashed Potatoes. Founder and CEO Ouida Bradshaw was an elementary teacher when she took a risk and started her own restaurant. Now sheâs a staple in her community.
Show Your Pride
June is Pride Month, but this yearâs at-home celebrations will look a little different.
One way to show your support is by purchasing from brands that are supporting the cause. Check out Baja East's 2020 Pride capsule collection that benefits Lady Gaga's [Born This Way Foundation]( gender-neutral underwear company TomboyX that regularly donates to LGBTQIA+ causes, and many more on [this list of 22 LGBTQ-friendly brands]( that are putting money behind Pride.
Then hit up some Pride-focused [online art exhibitions](. Youâll learn where the Pride flag came from, view art (yes, cat litter can be art) by famous sculptor Robert Gober, and virtually visit New York design studio TRNK to see the work of queer artists of color.
And if youâre into baking, might we suggest whipping up a batch of [Rainbow Macarons]( Theyâre pretty to look at, super tasty, and if youâre anything like us in the kitchen, the perfect all-day activity.
