"At Kulture, owner Marcus Davis provides a space for Black chefs to learn the ins-and-outs of restaurant operations and present their own menus. Chefs cook on a rotating basis, so you may experience excellent plates from the Caribbean diaspora one evening, and an expertly crafted soul food dish on another. Kulture’s newest resident chef, James Beard-nominated chef James Haywood, takes soul food ingredients and pairs them with flavors from all over the world. The collard green arancini, with its nods to Mediterranean fare, and bantu spiced lamb hummus, a Middle Eastern-inspired twist to the dish, transcend traditional expectations of what soul food can be." - Alexandria Jack
