Black-Owned Restaurant Struggling through pandemic
Donation protected
As a new business starting out, we were hit hard by the pandemic restrictions, shortly after our grand opening. The idea was to bring a new culture, and food to our local low-income neighborhood. We wanted to provide jobs, for those desperate in our community, who had turned to drugs, and other criminal activities. We were successful in riding the community of it's fear of drugs sold openly in the streets, and neighboring apartments by actively working with the city and local law enforcement. Our next goal of employment fell short when we couldn't afford to hire employees, due to the budget shortfalls and abrupt halt in sales, caused by the excessive regulations, and constraints brought on by the city and federal government, on the food service industry. Quite recently, due to the extreme weather in Texas, our pipes busted, and the restaurant flooded ruining kitchen equipments, furnitures, and electronics...We won't be open until all repairs are fixed...We serve West African cuisine, with Cajun flare...We're slowly building our business, and need assistance in that effort. #SmallBusinessRelief
