Kwame Onwuachi

Chef · Kith/Kin

Chef Onwuachi's restaurant Kith/Kin was one of the hottest reservations in the country but when COVID-19 closed its doors the James Beard Award-winning Chef turned into an activist. He joins Liz Bacelar in a candid chat on how he has been fighting for local restaurants and their employees, on facing racism in the culinary world, and his hit memoir, Notes From a Young Black Chef, becoming a Hollywood film.
