These 3 Black-owned Savannah restaurants top my list
Damon Lee Fowler
Ask most anyone in Savannah’s food service industry and they’ll readily tell you, Black chefs, cooks, and back-of-house workers are the backbone of the community.
If there were suddenly a mass exodus of African-Americans from the kitchens and back-of-house of Savannah’s many restaurants, cafés, and take-out emporiums, the industry might not fold, but it would certainly be crippled.
This has been true since the first enslaved Africans were put to work in the kitchens of Savannah’s early public and coffee houses, cook shops, and inns almost three centuries ago.
