Black History Month Celebration: Shrimp & Grits Taste-Off
A fun and festive community event showcasing the talents of Oakland’s most notable Black chefs: Chef Michael Woods of Oko at Tribune, Chef Lala Harrison, Chef Terry Braggs and Chef Fernay McPherson.
Each chef will prepare his, her or their version of the famed low-country dish. Guests will have the opportunity to sample each dish and vote to crown the winning Shrimp and Grits. Black-owned wines along with cocktails featuring Black-owned spirits will be poured. Music will be provided by DJ Mark Divita. The event will be sponsored by OurPlace and 23andMe.
A portion of the proceeds from the dinner will go to Kids 1st Foundation, a non-profit organization that serves as a resource for student information and applications while fostering opportunities to visit and tour historically Black universities and colleges.
