Buying Black: Chateau Rouge on FOX 29 Philly

In April 2025, owner Jeannette Jean and chef Giuseppe shared the story of Chateau Rouge in our first-ever TV interview on FOX 29 Philly’s Buying Black series, showcasing customer favorites like Yassa Chicken, Pasteles, and Suya Brochettes.

In April 2025, Chateau Rouge reached an unforgettable milestone: our first-ever television interview, featured on FOX 29 Philly as part of their Buying Black series.

The interview highlighted the vision behind Chateau Rouge, with owner Jeannette Jean and chef Giuseppe both present to share the story, passion, and purpose that shape the restaurant. This moment was more than a spotlight—it was a celebration of Black entrepreneurship, cultural storytelling, and the flavors that define who we are.

During the segment, we introduced viewers to some of our most popular dishes. From our Yassa Chicken, simmered in a rich onion sauce with Dijon mustard and olives, to our savory Pasteles and bold, smoky Suya Brochettes, each dish represents a piece of African and diasporic culinary heritage. These plates aren’t just customer favorites—they carry stories, traditions, and memories reimagined in our kitchen.

Being featured on FOX 29 Philly was a proud moment for our entire team and a reminder of why we do what we do: to honor culture, create community, and bring people together through food.

We’re grateful to FOX 29 Philly for highlighting Black-owned businesses and thankful to our guests and supporters who continue to be part of our journey.
