🌟 Exciting Visit Alert! 🌟

Today, I had the pleasure of visiting Herbachi, located at 522 E 79th St, Chicago, IL! As an insurance agent, I’m always on the lookout for businesses that prioritize safety and cleanliness, and I can confidently say Herbachi goes above and beyond!

🧼✨ The restaurant was immaculate, showcasing their commitment to a clean and hazard-free environment. It’s truly a testament to the care they put into not only their food but also the safety of their guests.

And speaking of amazing food—wow! 🤤 The flavors at Herbachi are simply out of this world. Each dish is a masterpiece, and you can taste the quality in every bite!

Plus, I love that they are cashless, providing an extra layer of protection for both customers and the business. 💳✅

If you’re in the area, make sure to stop by Herbachi for a delicious meal—you won’t regret it!

Habri Gani!!! That means what’s the news in Swahili. Today starts the first Day of Kwanzaa. I have the honor of being on the Kwanzaa Committee at Malcolm X College. MXC will celebrate all 7 days on campus!!! There will be vendors to shop each day along with programing based on each principle. There is even a children’s reading circle. This is a great event for the entire family.

On Thursday, NYE, December 31st, My company, Eclectic Soul, is partnering with my friend Kenard Karter @mrkarter at Culture & Collabs to co-produce the principle of Kuumba. Kuumba means “Creativity”. This year, we held over six art and soul events in the Chicagoland area. We are bringing our art and music experience to MXC.
