Seattle foodies have an extra reason to order out or head to a local restaurant this week, as Feb. 19-28 is the Pacific Northwest s inaugural Black Restaurant Week (BRW) a culinary campaign started in Houston in 2016 to celebrate the unique flavors of African-American, African and Caribbean cuisine.
The event has since gone nationwide to include 800 restaurants, and hits Seattle this week for its first-ever installation. The goal of the campaign is to promote local Black-owned restaurants, especially amid the economic impacts of COVID-19 that has forced over 90 restaurants in the city to close.

Millions of people will try a vegan diet this month for the so-called “Veganuary.” In Seattle, perhaps there’s no better place to give it a try.
Recently, Chef’s Pencil, an international food magazine that covers global food trends, released an updated version of their popular global veganism report declaring Seattle the 10th most vegan-friendly city in the world based on Google Trends, even before Los Angeles (15th).
Additionally, they analyzed Google Adwords data and found that vegan-related searches in Seattle surged by 25% in 2020, and 64% compared to three years ago.
