Description
This is Marcus Samuelsson's story, one that begins with a simple ritual: helping his grandmother prepare a roast chicken for dinner every Saturday afternoon. As he grew up, this love of food and family would become the foundation of his culinary journey.
From his grandmother's Swedish kitchen to his arrival in New York City, where his talent finally came together at Aquavit, Samuelsson's career has been marked by a series of highs and lows. He has cooked for presidents, faced career crises, and found success on reality TV shows. But it is the opening of Red Rooster in Harlem that represents his greatest achievement: creating a truly diverse dining room where people from all walks of life can come together.
This memoir is Samuelsson's love letter to food and family, told with touching modesty and remarkable candor. It is a story of identity, community, and the power of food to bring people together.
