Chef Adrienne Cheatham spent her career cooking in some of the country's most prestigious restaurants, from Eric Ripert's Le Bernardin to Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster. She went on to become a finalist on Top Chef and founded a popular pop-up series, SundayBest, where she honed her signature style of cooking that combined her family’s Southern roots and her own childhood food memories with her classical training in professional kitchens. The name of that series, and this book, were inspired by the special set of clothes that many in the Black community have reserved for church. During segregation, people would put on their "Sunday best" just to go into town as a way of demanding respect from those who didn't accept them as equal. This tradition and its meaning are at the core of Adrienne’s debut book which shows how everyday moments should be appreciated, celebrated, and made special for those you love.
