"How did I become a chef? My culture has always been around food and how to bring people closer together."
Congratulations to @ChefTRichards on the release of his new book "Soul: A Chef's Culinary Evolution in 150 Recipes" today!
Thank you to @KosherSoul and everyone at the Brownsville Community Culinary Center for an amazing meal!
Reading Afroculinaria.com in @DrMChatelain ‘s class was my introduction to food history so this film truly wouldn’t exist without his inspiring work!
Ohagi Gates of @thebusybeeatl offers some tips on how they make their fried chicken “pretty and smooth and golden.”
We’re in Atlanta and ready to start our day visiting @thebusybeeatl and filming @ChefTRichards at @PaschalsLegacy!
We're getting excited for our upcoming trip to Atlanta--we'll be visiting @thebusybeeatl, @MaryMacsAtlanta, and spending time with @ChefTRichards at several of his restaurants! Is there anywhere else we should visit while we're in town?

Portrait of the Grant family, Bertha’s, North Charleston, SC. Not seen - crunchy mac n cheese, sweet collards, red rice, okra & tomatoes. Hello @ChsWineandFood
As someone currently working on a doc about the history of fried chicken, I can’t wait to see how the Fried Chicken episode of the new @davidchang show tackles the subject. (The fact that it features both @LolisEricElie and Psyche Williams-Forson has me excited!) nitter.gq/hels/status/9671443595…
