"On Monday, December 18, Eduardo Jordan’s soul food restaurant JuneBaby announced on Instagram that it would be closing “in its current form” after a blowout New Year’s Eve service, ending the run of one of the most talked-about restaurants in Seattle in recent years. When JuneBaby opened in 2017, it was widely celebrated by local and national critics; Jordan won two James Beard Awards the following year, including the prize for best new restaurant, which a restaurant run by a Black chef had never won before." - Harry Cheadle
