Black-Owned Restaurants That Defied the Odds

From the Huffington Post -

4 Black-Owned Restaurants That Serve Food With A Side Of History
How Patillo's Bar-B-Q, The Four Way Restaurant, Sylvia's and Ben's Chili Bowl have found ways to thrive.
By Shontel Horne

History remembers 1912 as the year that saw the sinking of the RMS Titanic, the election of Woodrow Wilson as the 28th U.S. president and the establishment of Arizona’s statehood.

But for a small town in southeast Texas, 1912 was the year an entrepreneur named Jack Patillo Sr. opened Patillo’s Bar-B-Q, a Beaumont, Texas, institution that is both the state’s oldest family barbecue business and oldest Black-owned restaurant.

Patillo’s is in an elite club of independently owned American restaurants that have reached their centennial, a feat considering various reports and studies have found that restaurants have, at best, a five-year lifespan. But for establishments that have remained owned and operated by Black restaurateurs, the rare accomplishment is a testament to resilience, particularly during tumultuous and violent moments in American history.
