Kevin Lee Brings His Braised Food Business to Dallas
The former UFC fighter's farmers-market pop-up has grown into a Dallas opening that reportedly sold out, with a boost from his brother Keith, Black Enterprise says.
Black Enterprise reports that Kevin Lee, a former UFC fighter, opened a Dallas location of his food business Braised on Nov. 1, and that the launch sold out, according to 97.9 The Beat. The outlet says Braised began as a South Florida farmers-market pop-up before adding a food truck and catering, and that his brother, food critic Keith Lee, reviewed it and reportedly gave him $10,000 to reinvest. The money lesson: start small, reinvest what comes in, and let each step fund the next.
