According to the NYS Restaurant Association, since the nationwide outbreak of COVID-19, New York State restaurants are among the hardest hit in the country. Now, more than ever is time to show support for local businesses. And while it might take some time until international travel is permitted, we can still experience local cafes and eateries, with takeaways being a preferable option.
Here to show us the ropes is NYC food blogger Dominek Tubbs. An avid Yelp user and Yelp Eliter, Tubbs also runs her own food blog and accompanying Instagram page, titled Dom N’ The City. “I started blogging back in 2016,” she recalled in a piece published on Medium, “and it became a creative outlet and it had me excited to power through my day at work and get home to work on something that is MINE.”
With special focus on restaurants in Harlem, Tubbs is passionate about highlighting businesses from marginalized communities. “The mission behind Dom N’ The City has always been to highlight great restaurants and businesses,” she recently shared on Instagram. “Harlem has been home to us for almost 6 years, and I love this neighborhood and the community that has welcomed me with open arms.”
Featured in publications like Thrillist, TimeOut, and Travel Noire, be sure to show her some love by following her on Instagram:
