NYC will host fifth Black Restaurant Week, showcasing the city's diverse culinary scene and supporting black-owned restaurants.

Great news for food lovers in New York City! Black Restaurant Week is making its grand return for the fifth time, and it's expected to be bigger and better than ever before. Kicking off on Juneteenth, this event is a celebration of Black-owned businesses, both emerging and renowned, in the culinary industry. With affordable menu options and a diverse range of cuisines, this is a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in some delicious food.

And the best part? Black Restaurant Week isn't limited to just traditional restaurants. You can also explore the many cafes, food trucks, and bakeries across NYC and the tri-state area. The goal of this event is to showcase the diverse tastes of food across the Black diaspora, from African to Black American to Caribbean. So, no matter what your favorite type of food is, there's something for everyone to enjoy during this week-long event.

Believe it or not, Black Restaurant Week actually started in Houston and has since grown into an international festival celebrating Black culinary achievement. And this year, some of the most well-known restaurants in the world, like Red Rooster in Harlem and Negril Village, will be participating and offering a delicious array of their signature dishes to attendees in New York.

But this event isn't just about delicious food. It's also about supporting Black-owned businesses, especially in the wake of the pandemic. With the rising costs of food and a lack of access to funding and marketing resources, many Black restaurateurs struggle to promote their businesses. That's where Black Restaurant Week comes in - it provides free promotion and support to these businesses, helping them attract more customers and build awareness.

This year's event will take place from June 19 to June 30 in NYC, with over 80 restaurants participating. And to make planning your ultimate food tour easier, Black Restaurant Week has all the information you need on their website. So mark your calendars and get ready to indulge in some mouth-watering menus and support Black culinary professionals. See you there!
