Good eats for a good cause

Presented by Spire, BRW helps connect the community to local restaurants and benefits Birmingham’s restaurant community, but also gives back to a food-based nonprofit. This edition will benefit Community Kitchens Birmingham, a local food bank which operates two kitchens in Birmingham—in Woodlawn and Southside—where more than 44,000 meals are prepared each year for those in need in the community.
