"Her catering operation, That Brown Girl Cooks, supplied catered box lunches that included a boxed mixed-greens salad with ham, sweet potato salad, and a fried chicken thigh with jerk ranch dressing; that boxed-salad concept was adapted for Lil’ Brown Girl as a fried-chicken sandwich with roasted yam potato aioli and jerk ranch." - Courtney E. Smith

"I’ve seen Kristi Brown’s That Brown Girl Cooks continue the Everybody Gotta Eat work, fighting food insecurity and supporting other local businesses through pop-ups and markets." - Eater Staff

"Brown’s highly successful catering business serves as the backbone for much of her work: it’s the base for Communion’s in-house delivery run (using catering vans) and the site of an ongoing community kitchen on Martin Luther King Jr. Way S. Launched in partnership with Beacon Hill’s Musang, Feed the People’s Tarik Abdullah and other chefs, the #everybodygottaeat program continues to serve meals to anyone in need on Thursdays and Saturdays, reflecting Brown’s ethos of close community ties during the pandemic." - Megan Hill
