7 Black-Owned Restaurants In Long Island, NY, To Order Food From Today, From Crepes To Soul Food

Instagram

The New York Pause is about to be lifted during the Black Lives Matter Movement and we have to do justice. Here is a list of Black-owned restaurants on Long Island. Some of you may have vacation homes along Long Island, some of you may live on Long Island, and some of you may even love to visit Long Island!

As a fellow Long Islander, I wanted to share some restaurants that I have been to, and have yet to dine! I'm just as excited as you are about restaurants reopening and I'm definitely heading to the ones I haven't tried out on this list. I can't wait to try out the Island food!

For those of you who aren't from Long Island, here's an App that finds local, black-owned restaurants near you. If you'd like to support local, Black businesses, or maybe just find a new favorite place to eat, download the EatOkra app now.

Letter To My High School Friend Group

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM)

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
