The food website Taste of Home has listed what it feels are the top LGBTQ-owned restaurants in the country—and a Chicago bakery is among the spots.
Jennivee's Bakery, 3301 N. Sheffield Ave., "is a queer-owned and -operated bakery featuring American and Filipino cakes and pastries," the site notes. "Owner Jenni Vee pays homage to the flavors of her native home in the Philippines, with dreamy pastries like purple velvet ube cupcakes and mango chiffon cake."
Jennivee's website (JenniveesBakery.com) also shows a wide variety of customized wedding cakes, and items are available for delivery on GrubHub.
Some of the other restaurants on the list are Detroit Vegan Soul, Bolchik Bagels (Berkeley, California), Tagmo (New York City), Poplar (Charlotte, North Carolina), Fukumoto (Austin, Texas) and Amilinda (Milwaukee). The entire list is at www.tasteofhome.com/collection/best-lgbtq-owned-restaurants/ . |
