A Love Letter to the DMV
For The Culture DMV Food Tour was founded by Jamellia Arrington-Blount to celebrate the flavors, fortitude, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit found throughout the DMV.
Every neighborhood has a story.
Every restaurant has a journey.
Every plate carries a purpose.
We created this experience so guests can support and taste the culture while meeting the people building it every day.
Each experience celebrates exceptional Black-owned restaurants, vibrant hospitality, and the rich culture that makes the DMV unlike anywhere else.
What To Expect
Over the course of one unforgettable afternoon, you’ll visit a curated collection of 5-6 distinctive restaurants and enjoy generous food samplings—each offering its own signature flavors, atmosphere, and personality. Every stop has been intentionally selected to showcase the diversity and creativity of the DMV’s culinary scene.
This is more than a food tour.
It’s an opportunity to discover new favorites, connect with fellow food lovers, support local entrepreneurs, and experience the city in a way most people never do. Our mission has always been to create meaningful experiences that celebrate Black-owned businesses through food, storytelling, and community.
