WHEREAS, One of those new and flourishing businesses is Grandma B's Restaurant, owned by Mr. Dorian Moorefield and located at 2537 Wylie Avenue in the heart of the Hill District; and,
WHEREAS, Grandma B's was established on April 2, 2010, and is named after Mr. Moorefield's grandmother, Ms. Eula Beatrice McCamary of the Hill District.

WHEREAS, Mr. Moorefield credits his small staff, Ahmed Brazil and chef Al "Big Al" Diggs, formerly a chef at Churchill Country Club and Chatham College for their recent success and progress;
