A review by brimckoy
Notes from a Young Black Chef by Kwame Onwuachi

5.0

This was the December book club pick for The Cook’s Club! Our conversation on this book was so rich and deep and I am so grateful I read it and had people to discuss this with. I highly recommend the audio version as Kwame Onwuachi reads it himself.

I was not prepared for how difficult his childhood was (check content warnings) but this book of overcoming adversity and finding passion in cooking was brilliant and mouthwatering (the recipes alone are worth the book).
