As we celebrate Women's History Month, we want to take a moment to express our gratitude to the women who help drive the FOODe app engine. Without their hard work, dedication, and ingenuity, FOODe would not be where it is today.

This past weekend, Team FOODe went down to Austin, Texas to celebrate and participate in South By Southwest (SXSW.) Not only was the weather beautiful, but it was inspiring to see the venture capital and entrepreneurial communities come together to talk and break bread!

Women have been always been pioneers in the culinary world and they continue to shape the landscape. While only 25% of head chefs in modern kitchens are female, there’s an abundance of talent that deserves to be recognized.

We are so excited to officially announce FOODe’s Advisory Board!

Wanna talk about a Slam Dunk?? FOODe app in the NBA Events app IS JUST THAT!

February is here, which means it’s time to celebrate Black History Month! Instead of scrolling through paid search results or asking Google, “Black-owned restaurants around me,” just open the FOODe App. We ALWAYS have you covered!

We’re making history in Chicago! The FOODe team is honored (and thrilled) to be a part of World Business Chicago’s first ever Chicago Food Stop. This pop-up experience will highlight the past, present and future of food in Chicago.

You’re probably wondering what exactly "Tap That E" means. This month, when you see #TapThatE, we're encouraging you to Tap the FOODe App icon on your phone and experience, explore and enjoy food with your fellow foodies across the globe. So go ahead, Tap That E.

Atlanta, home of the Falcons, Coca-Cola, and FOODe’s last EPIC EXPERIENCE. We are only ONE WEEK away from our LAST stop of our 3-city tour featuring Ghetto Gastro.

The kids are back to school and gas prices are going down – so we know what that means, summer is coming to a close. Before the air gets too brisk, we thought we would give you a few outdoor places in Portland and New York City to consider dining at for your next foodie experience.

Last week the FOODe team was onsite for Chicago’s annual Windy City Smokeout. This year’s festival gathered over 40,000 attendees and featured a wide selection of wine, spirits, beer, BBQ, and country music artists like Tim McGraw, Miranda Lambert, Sam Hunt, and Willie Nelson.

FOODe sponsored an intimate 20 page VIP backstage luncheon and hosted investors alongside some of the city’s biggest food influencers. FOODe team members sat at each table with the special invited guests to connect, share, and answer questions about the app. To say that the guests were excited about the app and its future possibilities, would be an understatement!

Well, to be fair, when we are all locked down during the pandemic, most of us discovered our inner chef – putting those recipe books to use that previously lined our kitchen counters as decoration. However, recent research findings say that most of us have already retired our aprons and spatulas. According to a Financial Times article published just last week, popular grocery stores like Walmart have recently been struggling to clear food shelves as consumers are more concerned about making up for the time and experiences they missed during lockdown.

From Portland to Chicago the FOODe team was quite busy last week representing and pitching the app. On Wednesday, July 20th, the team sponsored the Maurice Lucas ML20 Foundation golf event. The foundation focuses on youth empowerment and the funds raised go to programs that help kids learn, achieve, and grow through sports. In addition to attending and sponsoring the event, the team partnered with Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse to offer a gift card to a new app user and created the Portland: ML20 Platelist™️ for event attendees.

Last week the FOODe team had the honor of participating in TECHRISE’s TECHCHICAGO Week. For this event, TECHRISE, an organization known for connecting Chicago’s historically underrepresented tech founders to funding, knowledge, and networks to help grow their businesses, brought together VCs from all over the nation – Austin, New York, Los Angeles, and more.
