Meet seven female restaurant leaders who have shaped the way Washington eats.
My husband [Ben Ali] worked his way through college by working in restaurants. When we were engaged, he wanted to open a little restaurant. I thought it sounded like a good idea. I didn’t have any experience, but I’m a quick learner. I knew we had to find the ideal location. We were under segregation, so we looked at Black Broadway, which is U Street. We thought if we could be near Black Broadway, we’d be doing well.
And it’s like your children—no one loves your business the way you love it. Whatever comes along, you have to make it work. If we had to give up our apartment and build a shower in the back of the restaurant, we would do it. We didn’t have to, thankfully.Longevity comes from serving your community and serving it well. And letting your community know you’re there to support them, just as they’re there to support you—we’ve learned that in 63 years. Imagine going through the civil-rights movement.
