-
Yes — we capture moments from our gatherings for use on our website and social media. By attending, you consent to being photographed. If you have any concerns, please let us know on the night and we'll make sure to respect your preferences.

Events range from $25 to $100+ depending on the experience — but every gathering is designed to be worth it without breaking the bank. A full curated evening with food, hosting, and activities will naturally sit higher than a casual dinner out. We're always upfront about what's included so you know exactly what you're signing up for.
For restaurant gatherings, each person covers their own meal. We occasionally arrange a group discount, a little gift, or a welcome treat from the restaurant — because showing up should feel special from the start.

We want to hear from you — especially if you're a Black woman chef or a restaurant rooted in the African diaspora. We're actively looking for chefs to co-host a table and restaurants to host our gatherings. This is a chance to bring your food to a room full of women who will appreciate every bite. If that's you, reach out at kutana.mtl@gmail.com and tell us about yourself.
