MBRW: Mushrooms are the meat at Shroomlicious
Shroomlicious owner Daishu McGriff operates her vegan pop-up out of OtherFoods Kitchen at 1249 Heistan Place. It’s one of 28 restaurants (and pop-ups) participating in Memphis Black Restaurant Week this week. “Our idea is to be plant forward, and we want people to see that plants can lead the plate,” McGriff said.

The owner of Shroomlicious, one of this year’s Memphis Black Restaurant Week pop-ups, is focused on buying a food truck and growing the business into a mobile mushroom operation.
