"I followed Johnny Huff Jr.'s move of Everybody Eats into a larger Pearl District space specifically to accommodate more indoor diners within capacity limits, and when the state shut down indoor dining again he was frustrated but not surprised; he pivoted to brainstorm more takeout options, merchandise, virtual cooking classes, consultations, and spice mixes, saying as a Black male restaurateur you constantly have to reinvent yourself and prepare for the worst while hoping for the best." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
