Recommendation
How did two very different people come together to create one of America’s most celebrated restaurants? In this captivating co-autobiography, Mashama Bailey, a Black chef from Queens, and John O. Morisano, a white entrepreneur from Staten Island, explore their experiences as business partners and the relationship between race, gender, class and food in the Deep South culture of Savannah, Georgia. Though dozens of books explore unconscious bias and the race and class struggle in America, Bailey and Morisano’s tale of founding The Grey restaurant packs a unique, emotionally powerful punch.
