'Oakland is an amazing city. It's on the food front, and it's food forward.'
Chef Aminah Robinson-Briscoe, better known as Chef Mimi, is the founder of the annual Black Food & Wine Experience in Oakland., had a vision for an event that would not only celebrate Black culture, food and entertainment, but would also include networking opportunities for members of Black and Indigenous communities to go into business for themselves.
Guests at the 5th annual Black Food & Wine Experience can expect a variety of sweet and savory bites over the multi-day event.“Ingrid Best just created her own wine, and she’ll be talking about the process of how to become a winemaker,” Robinson-Briscoe said. “She’s a brand ambassador for her own brand, but she’s also worked for tons of spirit and wine brands and has a really unique position in marketing.
“We want people to understand that this event is really about building community. We can't have these conversations without having everybody buy in and be a part of it,” Robinson-Briscoe told SFGATE. “We want to make sure that people understand that this event is for you. It's for everyone. And it's all about celebrating Black culture.”
