It’s not too late to preserve KC’s Black-owned restaurants (or to enjoy Black Feast Week)The recent closures of Soiree, The Krave, and Privee — Black-owned restaurants that each became a staple of Kansas City’s evolving food scene — leave a clear void that can’t be ignored, said Ryan Sorrell. The event’s goal is to provide more than just visibility for the participating restaurants — it’s about long-term sustainability. By spotlighting these local businesses, Sorrell hopes Black Feast Week will help generate more restaurant traffic beyond the two-week window, creating lasting visibility for these establishments. Specials during Black Feast Week range from Mattie’s Foods’ BBQ Bacon Chicken Sandwich to Chef Smokey’s gumbo greens with cornbread, and Teetasty Foods’ sampler plates of Egusi and Fufu. Black Feast Week is about celebrating that.”
