[admin]

If anyone asks chef Marcus Samuelsson what African food taste like, he has a ready answer: Have you ever had barbeque? “All of that food comes from Africa, has its roots in Africa," says the Ethiopian Swedish writer and restaurateur. Samuelsson is hoping to educate Americans and champion Black chefs in “The Rise: Black Cooks and the Soul of American Food” from Little, Brown and Company's Voracious imprint.
