About Pineappetit
Founded by Chef Samuel Burgess, Pineappetit is a Florida-based, Black-owned culinary brand built on flavor, culture, and community. What began as a small side-hustle while studying at Florida A&M University has evolved into a food and beverage company with a restaurant, food truck, and campus concessions across Florida.
“To bring people together through food, culture, and positive energy — one plate at a time.”
Pineappetit has been featured on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and continues to serve Caribbean-inspired comfort food with high-volume efficiency and strong community impact.
