Description

A memoir from one of America's most celebrated chefs, Kwame Onwuachi, offers a powerful and heartfelt account of his culinary coming-of-age. Born into a Nigerian family in New York, Onwuachi recounts the journey that took him from selling drugs to opening restaurants, including Tatiana, the #1 restaurant in New York City. Through his story, Onwuachi shares the challenges he faced as a young chef of color in a world where food and culture are often tied to specific communities. With shocking honesty, he reveals how he navigated these obstacles and found success through hard work and determination. This is an inspiring and thought-provoking account of chasing your dreams, even when they don't turn out as expected. With its intersection of race, fame, and food, Onwuachi's memoir shines a light on the power of food to bring people together and transcend boundaries.
