“I’m ready. I’m ready to meet new customers and feed people,” says Andrea Jackson in a press release. She goes by “Chef Khalipha” and is the owner and operator of Khalipha’s Mobile Kitchen. “We have the best halal soul food in town, and I want the world to know. Cooking is my passion and what I was destined to do. Our two-year anniversary is in July, and my plan is to continue spreading love and joy through my food. Being a part of Downtown Street Eats is an opportunity to do just that, while also helping to increase the visibility of my business and expand my customer following.”

Now in its 10th season, Downtown Street Eats is curated by the marketing firm Ask Jennyfer and created, programmed, and managed by Downtown Detroit Partnership. The DDP also hosts beach parties, fitness classes, live music, and other family-friendly events.
