This is fun to listen to, though I feel this would work better as a visual series and not just audio. (I haven't checked to see if it was also produced as a video; since it was done specifically for Audible I doubt it.) Though, once we're able to travel again, I want to make a point to visit Harlem and see some of the sights / taste some of the foods described in this audiobook. This is an Audible exclusive, a collection of seven short programs recorded at Marcus Samuelsson's signature Harlem restaurant, Red Rooster. Each segment explores an element of Harlem society: its original history, the northern migration of blacks, the influence of Southern culture and Latino culture, its significance to the music scene, the lasting influence of the country's first African-American president, and more. In each episode, Marcus makes a dish for his guests that is related to the topic of discussion (recipes are available on the affiliated website) and musical guests offer a bit of entertainment. Samuelsson is an engaging host, and his guests, for the most part, tell interesting stories about the Harlem community. I enjoyed his memoir, Yes, Chef, and expected to like this one, too. Overall, it doesn't disappoint. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
To hear Ethiopian and Swedish chef, TV personality, and restauranteur Marcus Samuelsson cook with special guests at the Red Rooster restaurant is to make an audio pilgrimage to Harlem. Listeners will get to know the iconic neighborhood, Marcus' home, through its food, its history, and - most importantly - its people. Special guests join Marcus each day of the week to cook, to laugh, and to share their stories, including Melba Wilson, Jelani Cobb, Bevy Smith, and Kevin Young, to name a few. Our Harlem transports listeners to the hub of African American culture. Join us when Marcus recreates the short ribs he made at the Red Rooster for President Obama's fundraiser there, and when author Jelani Cobb discusses the lasting significance of the first African American President. Listen to Marcus explore the African and Southern roots of his favorite ingredients with food historian Jessica Harris, and make fried chicken with Harlem's very own Charles Gabriel. And venture out in El Barrio to La Marqueta with Marcus and Harlem native Aurora Flores. Writers Isabel Wilkerson and Nicholas Lemann ponder the Great Migration, and how it brought Southern food (think shrimp and grits), new voters, and amazing creative talent to Harlem. Dapper Dan, legendary tastemaker, opines about Harlem style. And musicians who play at Ginny's, Red Rooster's supper club, provide the rhythms that pulse through the neighborhood - from El Barrio Night's Latin beats to Sunday's teenage gospel choir.

I love, love, loved this read. I expected so little of what ended up happening, and was drug out with current entirely. The focus on food, politics, race, class, poverty, culture is so broad and so gorgeous. I was really sad this book started ending when it did. It's left me with so much to think on. ( )
