East of the River
ByAnthony D. Diallo
Meredith Jacobs and Babette Williams.
As a Georgetown University graduate, Meredith Jacobs did not plan to become ensconced in Ward 7 and morph into an entrepreneur within the food industry. It just sort of happened.
“I came to D.C. to go to college and only became interested in the food business and this specific area after interning at the Southeast White House,” said Jacobs, 29, who has resided East of the River for the last seven years, first in Fort Davis and most recently at her present address in Penn Branch. This spot has proven to be an ideal location to live, practice philanthropy and operate her growing food truck business, Granny’s Kitchen.
