FoodChasers’ Kitchen in Elkins Park will take part in “Pepsi Dig In Day” on Saturday, August 19. The event is designed to drive access, business growth, and awareness to Black-owned restaurants.

That day, area residents can get a free meal while supplies last. FoodChasers’ will be serving fan-favorite Shrimp & Grits, their most popular breakfast dish inspired by their travels.

Residents also have the chance to win $5,000 by posting their meal and tagging their favorite Black-owned restaurant. They can also unlock a $5,000 donation for the restaurant. 

“Our goal for Pepsi Dig In has always been to celebrate and generate awareness for Black-owned restaurants, not just on Pepsi Dig In Day, but all year long,” Scott Finlow, Chief Marketing Officer of PepsiCo Global Foodservice, said. “This year, we’re turning up the flavor and excitement with the support of renowned partners like the James Beard Foundation and events like our Washington D.C. block party where people can indulge in delicious food, cheer on talented chefs, and soak up the vibrant culture that accompanies every dish.”
