You Should Take Some Notes From A Young Black Chef Named Kwame Onwuachi

Chef Kwame Onwuachi has won the James Beard award for Rising Star Chef of the Year. His memoir “Notes From a Young Black Chef” documents his journey around the world—from Nigeria as a young boy to D.C. as a young man. He is vulnerable and authentic as he discloses both his failures and triumphs with humor and grace. At Kith/Kin, these stories manifest in a complex and tasty expression of cooking his African cuisine . Did I mention he’s only 29 years old?
