Who is your culinary inspiration?My Auntie EarlToya Boss & My Bestie Shakeita Richardson sharing their kitchen knowledge and recipes with me will forever be inspiring. Seeing displined women who look like me grow in the industry and give abundantly is a blessing that gave me the courage to step out on faith.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest 100% in my Cafe start up. Payback 12,000 start up loan. 2,000 use for initial marketing & branding photos. 2,000 Merch initial costs. And hold the rest for emergency or unforseen cost of business.
