CrewDish

06/04/2026

We've built CrewDish the hard way — one event, one dish, one customer at a time. 🔥
Now we're ready to grow, and we're asking our community to be part of it. Every dollar helps us serve more events, support more chefs, and move closer to a permanent home for CrewDish.
If you've ever enjoyed our food or believe in supporting small, local, Black-owned business — chip in or share. Both make a real difference. 🙏

Hi, I'm Zantrel Franklin, founder of CrewDish — a Black-owned, chef-driven food … zantrel Franklin needs your support for Help CrewDish Grow: Chef-Driven Food

Sun's out — and so are we. 🌞 Char-grilled Jerk Chicken Bowl over coconut rice with house-pickled mango slaw, and our Island Cup — Caribbean fruit dusted in scratch jerk-lime sugar with tamarind, scotch bonnet, and toasted coconut. Chef-driven street food, made fresh on the spot. Catch us at the markets all summer. 🔥
